Hello This post is just a memo for Octave/Windows – MinGW packages on the Octave Forge site.
Many inquiries for the Octave/Windows – MinGW packages on the Octave Forge web site have been carried out recently. Top page : http://octave.sourceforge.net/ Download page : http://sourceforge.net/projects/octave/files/ Just after brown color box in the top page of the Octave Forge web site, you will find If you have questions regarding software downloaded from Octave-Forge, send a message to the repository mailing list. The term ‘repository mailing list’ is underlined and it is a link to the ‘repository mailing list ’. The email address of the list is ‘[email protected] ’ Therefore in principle, questions intrinsic to ‘Octave/Windows – MinGW packages’ are recommended asked at the ‘repository mailing list’: [email protected]. Of course, questions and bug reports are not intrinsic to the‘Octave/Windows – MinGW packages are to be asked at [email protected] ([email protected]) and [email protected] ([email protected]), respectively. However, it is very hard from a users point of view to determine when a problem relates to the packaging of Octave or when it is an integral problem of Octave as pointed out by Soren Hauberg. Therefore I would like to ask a questioner that an issue intrinsic to ‘Octave/Windows – MinGW packages’ is recommended asked at ‘[email protected] ’ from the next time. BTW. I will note the octave/Window packages by Microsoft VC++. The packages are removed from the Octave Forge site at Apr 21, 2009 form license issue Please see http://www.nabble.com/No-symbolic-package-in-future-(Windows-VC%2B%2B)-releases-td23135095i20.html#a23151497 So current available octave binaries are only Octave/Windows – MinGW packages. The jhandle graphic backend is not included in the packages. It is theoretically possible to in stall jhandle octave-forge package into the current octave distributed. However I think that it is hard work. Please see http://www.nabble.com/Re:-Fwd:-Octave-3.2.0-backend-on-MS-Vista-p24609365.html and http://www.nabble.com/Octave-3.2.0-mingw-jhandles-to24024734.html Regards Tatsuro -------------------------------------- Power up the Internet with Yahoo!
