[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #40284] Octave Release Notes pane's text source refers to build dir, not install dir

[Rik]

Update of bug #40284 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Works For Me

Follow-up Comment #11:

I just did a complete cycle of 'make dist' and then unpacking the tarball,
configuring, building, and installing and the Release Notes pane works for me.
 This is on a Linux system though.

The NEWS file should be found in the OCTAVE_OCTETCDIR, and run-octave doesn't
adjust for that.  So, unless you have done at least one install to put the
NEWS file in /usr/local/... then it will fail with run-octave.
