[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59821] [octave forge] (ga) pkg update with ga 0.10.2 installs in user home folder instead of packages folder on windows

[Nicholas Jankowski]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #59821 (project octave):

looking at verbiage in the pkg help text, is it correct to say that 'pkg
install -local' is the current default behavior? Or does that option imply
something that isn't true by default?   The help text says that '-local'
forces local install even if you have admin/root privileges.  That indirectly
implies that if you did have system priv, it wouldn't normally do a local
install.  On windows, that doesn't seem to matter now, as it does a local
install by default whether or not you have write access to the Octave
installation folder.
