Run "pkg list", you'll see a line like
integration | 1.0.4 | /usr/share/octave/packages/integration-1.0.4
and for the image package you'll see
image *| 1.0.5 | /usr/share/octave/packages/image-1.0.5
Notice the "*" character? That means the package is both installed and
loaded.. A package can be installed and not loaded and that makes sense
for functions that change the behavior of core octave functions such as
the NaN package. You can either
1) type "pkg load integration" to load the package. You'll need to do
this each time you run octave
2) or, reinstall with pkg -auto install integration-1.0.4.tar.gz to
force the package to be auto installed
All of this is explained in the manual. Type "doc pkg" in octave for
more details.
