Re: Octave 3.6.0-rc0 release candidate available for ftp

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Hello

I have built on MinGW platform with GCC-4.6.2.

The difference in previous snapshot (3.5.92) is that addition of -larpack to 
LIB environmental variable was not needed for 3.6.0-rc0.

make check results is
Summary:

  PASS  10076
  FAIL      3

which is the same as that in 3.5.92.
http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/Octave-3-5-92-snapshot-available-for-ftp-td4270829i20.html#a4280805

New snapshot is fine for MinGW build except for one FAIL in date.m.

Regards

Tatsuro
