Hi,
I may have not understood what you are trying to do, but in the latest
version of Octave you ca install directly from forge using the command
octave> pkg -forge install <package-name>
Where <package-name> is the package you want to install
You can get a list of the packages with
octave> pkg -forge list
And your local versions
octave>pkg list
If you want to install a compresse dpackage you downloaded you do
octave> pkg install <fullpath-to-package>
Hope this helps

Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop
What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses

provide companies an easier-to-deploy, easier-to-manage and more affordable
virtual desktop model.http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51426474/
