Finally, I have switch to extra-devel just for the installing of octave (and remove the extra-devel afterwards).

Thanks to developers, I think it is a pretty tool. By the way, I guess you realized the '=' symbol is slower to use than others that are directly in keyboard (at least in Pt and Spanish ones). There are 2 possibilities for users to solve that, modifying the layout when opening octave (through a shell script) or smarter to define a new operator equal to the '='. I don't remember what should i do for the last option. If somebody remember, please reply me, otherwise I will write it here when I found how it was as I guess it will be interesting for others.

I think this is a beautiful tool as it convert your cell into the "better" programmable calculator.

Hi there, sorry to bring up an old thread, but could someone help me install an octave package. I'm getting the following:

Code:
configure: error: in `/var/tmp/oct-NBXuTf/odepkg-0.6.10/src': 
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables 
See `config.log' for more details. 
the configure script returned the following error: checking for gcc... gcc 
checking whether the C compiler works... no 
error: called from `pkg>configure_make' in file /opt/octave//share/octave/3.2.3/m/pkg/pkg.m near line 1240, column 2 
error: called from: 
error: /opt/octave//share/octave/3.2.3/m/pkg/pkg.m at line 714, column 5 
error: /opt/octave//share/octave/3.2.3/m/pkg/pkg.m at line 287, column 7

Can gcc create a simple Hello World! app? Or is there some problem with its installation?

Do yo have a gcc installed on your maemo?

It seems to be in extras-devel or in SDK repositories:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...&highlight=gcc

You can check it by calling it from the xterm, for instance at my laptop:

$> gcc --version
gcc (Debian 4.4.5-8) 4.4.5

Can you check whether pkg-config is within any package of extra-devel?

I'm not so sure that building the packages ourselves on the device is the best way to go. It would be preferable in terms of installation space (no need for GCC and all the other Octave deps) as well as speed to be able to compile and then package these up using scratchbox.

Has anyone looked at whether this is possible/how awkward it would be?
