Cool, thanks!

 However, you shouldn't be getting these errors just from a missing lib.

I thought not...but I'd have had a really hard time figuring out I was missing the gsl stuff if the rest of it was working, so definitely some good has come out of whatever the other problem is...

 Does
 fink install gsl gsl-shlibs
 fink remove octave-forge
 fink rebuild octave-forge

 fix it?

Nope, no surprise there. It fixes the missing stuff in octave-forge, I think I now have the same amount (size of files) as the others reported. But I still get the errors from octave just the same. Now...the first error (on starting octave) is with processing some octave-forge stuff:

error: `dispatch' undefined near line 2 column 1
error: near line 2 of file `/sw/share/octave/2.1.71/site/m/octave-forge/comm//PKG_ADD' error: source: error sourcing file `/sw/share/octave/2.1.71/site/m/octave-forge/comm//PKG_ADD'

but "dispatch" is not part of octave-forge, right? And the other example commands that fail, like

octave:1> b=rand(3,3)
error: `rand' undefined near line 1 column 3
error: evaluating assignment expression near line 1, column 2

aren't either?? So...there is still something wrong with my copy of octave...where should I find something related to "dispatch" or "rand" that I could check??

Many thank,
