Inline text actually works better for us, because it's easier for
searches of the mailing list archives. Here's the contents:

Your problem is with atlas, not octave-atlas, since you haven't gotten
to the latter yet.
ATLAS takes a while to build, admittedly, but I've only had it take
multiple days on old hardware. If you've got a lot of other things
going on those could potentially slow down the build, though.
Quitting and restarting generally won't change anything unless your
issue is due to running out of disk space, or possibly if something has
gone awry and your build is touching libraries outside of Fink that got
changed mid-build. Your snippet doesn't indicate that, or anything that
looks obviously like an error. Is this where the console output
stopped, too? Both times?
I'd suggest the following:
1) Do allow for multiple hours of potential build time.
2) Go ahead and use "fink configure" to reset the number of build jobs
to your maximum allowable to speed things up. Your error doesn't have
the symptoms of a multiple build jobs problem--that's typically a file
not found error.
3) Try again using the "-l" option to get a full log file (in /tmp),
e.g. via "fink -l install atlas". You can send me that log file
off-list. That will make it clearer what exactly is going on.
4) If you're in a hurry, I can suggest the other variants of Octave:
just 'octave', which uses a built-in system framework instead of ATLAS;
or 'octave-ref', which uses a non-optimized, and therefore quicker to
build, implementation of the same libraries that go into ATLAS.
