Sorry if this just adds insult, but it worked for me too. I just tried. I have an sf.net mingw install of 3.2.4 (with all packages except the ever-troublesome oct2mat). I downloaded xraylib http://octave.sourceforge.net/packages.php Then did pkg('install','C:\andy\downloads\xraylib-1.0.8.tar.gz','-verbose') I get this line too. But it does not matter rm: cannot lstat `libxrl.a': No such file or directory It is followed by make[1]: [external] Error 1 (ignored) Octave then paused for a while, and I pressed enter impatiently (this may be irrelevant!). Then the prompt returned and I did >pkg load xraylib >AtomicWeight(3) ans = 6.9400 -- /* andy buckle */ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
