Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. This is the expected behavior of the Octave program, and
the message displayed tells you exactly what component to install to
proceed with what you want to do.
Also keep in mind, the correct way to install Octave packages in Ubuntu
is to install them using the Ubuntu Software Center (or synpatic or apt-
get). For example, to install the `general` package, instead of using
the `pkg` command as you demonstrated, you can install with `sudo apt-
get install octave-general`.
** Changed in: octave (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
