In case it is useful for anyone else: I copied the qtoctave.info and .patch files to my 10.7 local tree and tried installing the x11 variant. It built, installed, and seems to run OK (once you tell it the name of the octave executable via the config menu).
The build issues lots of warnings like this: In file included from /sw/src/fink.build/qtoctave-x11-0.9.1-1006/qtoctave-0.9.1/qtoctave/src/moc_session.cxx:10: In file included from /sw/src/fink.build/qtoctave-x11-0.9.1-1006/qtoctave-0.9.1/qtoctave/src/session.h:4: In file included from /sw/lib/qt4-x11/include/QtCore/QObject:1: In file included from /sw/lib/qt4-x11/include/QtCore/qobject.h:47: In file included from /sw/lib/qt4-x11/include/QtCore/qobjectdefs.h:45: In file included from /sw/lib/qt4-x11/include/QtCore/qnamespace.h:45: /sw/lib/qt4-x11/include/QtCore/qglobal.h:327:6: warning: #warning "This version of Mac OS X is unsupported" [-W#warnings] # warning "This version of Mac OS X is unsupported" ^ 1 warning generated.
