cannot install fem-fenics

[beew]

Hi,

I am trying to install the octave-forge package fem-fenics in Octave 3.8
(self compiled) It complained that dolfin.h was not found and aborted. I
have compiled dolfin from source (git version as the stable version doesn't
make) and dolfin.h is in /usr/local/include

To find out what happened I downloaded the fem-fenice tarball and tried to
compile it locally so I can read the config log.

I looked at the config.log and found

"
In file included from
/usr/local/include/dolfin/multistage/dolfin_multistage.h:8, from
/usr/local/include/dolfin.h:32,from
conftest.cpp:52:/usr/local/include/dolfin/multistage/PointIntegralSolver.h:25:
fatal error: Eigen/Dense: No  such
file or directory compilation terminated.
"

But Eigen/Dense is in /usr/include/eigen3/Eigen/Dense (it is in the package
libeigne3-dev from the Ubuntu repository) so I made a symlink to
/usr/include/Eigen (sudo ln -s /usr/include/eigen3/Eigen /usr/include/Eigen)

Now it can find dolfin.h but say it cannot be compiled.

>From config.log 

"configure:2921: WARNING: dolfin.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure:2921: WARNING: dolfin.h:     check for missing prerequisite
headers?
configure:2921: WARNING: dolfin.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure:2921: WARNING: dolfin.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be
Compiled"
configure:2921: WARNING: dolfin.h: proceeding with the compiler's result"

Not sure what to make of this, help will be greatly appreciated.
