At the end of the process, when the progress bar in FinkCommander is almost filled in, I have this bit : ../../texi2dvi: line 257: tex: command not found texi2html -expandinfo -split_chapter -I . -I ./.. octave.texi After which is blocks on the last line. I tried to wait for hours, but didn't not any further progress. What does this mean? How so solve it? It looks like the tetex-base package is needed in order to build octave.  (It will provide the missing "tex" command.)   -- Dave Maintainer cc'd.
