 this is the wrong mailing list. Octave packages belong to octave-forge
 so bugs should be reported there.

 All the problems you mentioned have already been fixed on the
 development version (that's why you couldn't patch against the SVN
 tree) we just need someone to make a new release of the package.

It's quite simple and explained in http://octave.sourceforge.net/developers.html

Basically, cd into main/econometrics and run

svn log -v -r HEAD:{-mm-dd}

with the date from last release. This will generate a list of commits
since the last release. Write them in a NEWS file. Update the version
number and date on DESCRIPTION. Then

svn export ../econometrics ~/econometrics
cd ~

make sure to remove all .svnignore and othr things not necessary in
econometrics/

tar czf econometrics-x.y.z.tar.gz econometrics/

install the package you just generated and generate the documentation
pkg install -forge generate_html;
pkg load generate_html;
generate_package_html ('econometrics', 'econometrics-html', 'octave-forge');

Then exit octave prompt and

tar czf econometrics-html.tar.gz econometrics-html/

That's it. Upload both files to the forum and I'll upload them to the server.

Yes, did all that including the html docs and that is up on the

Yes, I see it now. You forgot to update the date of release. It's ok,
I fixed that on my side. What I noticed is that communications now no
longer has marcumq because it moved into signal. I should make a new
release of signal so that there's no period without that function
available.

Thanks, I realized that too about the function moving, might as well

I found a problem with signal because of the circular dependency with
communications. While they can be installed at the same time, as soon
as one tries to load them it fails with a max_recursion_depth exceeded
error. This can be work around with pkg load -nodeps but that should
not be an option for a release. Any thoughts?

I let you add it at the time but I thought it might be a problem :)
Honestly I think bitrevorder should be rewritten to not use the
communications functions.  You could put it out as it was, without the
dependency, and we'd be no worse than before, and in the future I'd
like to fix it to get rid of the bi2de/de2bi calls.

You're right, I didn't foresaw any other problems aside the install.
About fixing this, it just occured to me that I can always make those
2 functions subfunctinos to bitrevorder. It's not the cleanest option
but seems better than not listing the dependency. What do you think?

Yes. However, when the next release of image comes out there will be a
problem. Next release will be dependent on signal and signal is
dependent on image because of marcumq...

[OctDev] multiple instances of the same package

2012-05-12 Thread Mike Miller
I have some packages installed globally via apt-get and some installed
locally with pkg install -local.

Is this expected to work with more than one instance of the same
package name, i.e. only the one with the highest version is used?

I locally installed the new signal and communications, this seems to
work for signal but not for communications.  Any ideas where I can
look for what's happening here?

Thanks for the quality control and the package upload, guys. I'm just
glad another Octave package got fixed.
