Re: Octave 2.1.20 available for ftp

[Thomas Walter]

Hello,
I think there is bug in the sources of 'lapack' in 'octave-2.1.20'.
But note:  I do not speak fortran.

My environment
   linux, rh-5.1
    gcc-2.95.2
    glibc-2.0.7

contents of 'config.site':
CFLAGS='-O2 -mpentium -malign-double -D_GNU_SOURCE'
CXXFLAGS='-O2 -mpentium -malign-double -D_GNU_SOURCE'
FFLAGS='-O -mpentium -malign-double -D_GNU_SOURCE'

This works for 'octave-2.1.19' 'octave-2.0.14' 'octave-2.0.14.91'

'configure' call:
configure --enable-dl --enable-shared --enable-rpath --enable-lite-kernel

Error report of 'gcc':
