The README.MacOS file needs to be updated to reflect this MUCH smaller list of critical dependencies (I don't think fftw is even needed, but Octave wouldn't be very useful to me without it.)

- gfortran from r.research.att.com/tools
- gnu sed compiled and installed with --prefix=/usr
- fftw3 and fftw3f built as universal binaries (CFLAGS, FFLAGS, LDFLAGS all set to "-arch i686 -arch x86_64", configure with --disable-dependency-tracking)

- octave 3.3.54:
export CFLAGS="-m32"
export FFLAGS="-m32 -ff2c"
export CPPFLAGS="-m32 -D_REENTRANT"
export LDFLAGS="-m32"

./configure --disable-readline --disable-docs
make
./run-octave

I still get a cs-list error when I try to print:

octave:3> print('-dpng','test.png')
warning: print.m: ghostscript not found in EXEC_PATH.
warning: print.m: Ghostscript binary is not available.
warning: print.m: epstool binary is not available.
warning: print.m: fig2dev binary is not available.

error: evaluating argument list element number 3

I will attempt the 64-bit version with the wrapper described elsewhere, but once this cs-list problem is addressed I think this is ready to go in README.MacOS for 32-bit at least.

Richard,

I was under the impression that automake must be >= 1.11.

What version of automake are you using? The one I have bundled is version 1.10.

---------------------------------------

$ /usr/bin/automake --version

automake (GNU automake) 1.10
