I now tried on Debian Lenny, 64 bit which did not work out of the box. After installing fits libs, I get the following output: octave:3> pkg install fits.tar.gz Package cfitsio was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cfitsio.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'cfitsio' found Package cfitsio was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cfitsio.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'cfitsio' found Package cfitsio was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cfitsio.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'cfitsio' found
I think this is related to the Debian package not containing the library . Replacing MKOCT_FLAGS = $(shell pkg-config --libs cfitsio) with MKOCT_FLAGS = -lcfitsio in src/Makefile makes it run on debian. I attach the modified package. Can someone else test it? (or provide a more general solution to the mkoctflags problem) Paul asdfsadfd skrev: > Thanks for supplying this code! > I tried the toolbox on mac os x leopard (from macports, 3.2.4). > I installed the cfitsio library via macports first.
