Hello. No, my fault; addpath's part of octave-forge, which you don't
seem to have installed properly. Use the Octave command path to add the
directory to your path:
path (path (),
"/usr/libexec/octave/2.1.71/site/oct/i686-redhat-linux-gnu/octave-forge").
Also, I didn't read your message through before, so this path stuff
isn't going to fix the `not a valid shared library' problem. I don't
know what that's about. Sorry.
