I did few steps futher: try to install java package from the octave prompt: octave:1> pkg install java-1.2.6.tar.gz warning: lo_ieee_init: unrecognized floating point format! warning: lo_ieee_init: unrecognized floating point format! warning: lo_ieee_init: unrecognized floating point format! __java__.cc: In function ‘void initialize_jvm()’: __java__.cc:385: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ ... < few warnings deleted > ... 2 problems (2 warnings)error: memory exhausted or requested size too large for range of Octave's index type -- trying to return to prompt octave:1> Then I tried to build the package in bash shell with ./configure and make, then it succeeds: 2 problems (2 warnings)rm -f octave.jar jar cf octave.jar org/octave/ClassHelper.class org/octave/OctClassLoader.class org/octave/Octave.class org/octave/OctaveReference.class org/octave/Matrix.class It appears to me that it is this "jar cf ...
