Re: Bug on octave 3.1.51+ with pkg install

[Jaroslav Hajek]

Since there is no reason to wrap the subfunction
is_architecture_dependent in an identity anonymous function, the
attached workaround should make the problem vanish (and it is not a
temporary solution).

Still, the underlying problem persists, as the subfunction seem to be
unreachable in an anonymous function. Not always, though: it seems to
work when pkg.m is copied into local directory. I'll try to submit a
new bug report for this.

Michael, Riccardo, David, please use the attached patch to make pkg work.

regards,
