GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical
computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for solving
linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical
experiments using a language that is mostly compatible with Matlab. It may
also be used as a batch-oriented language.
This requires a BLAS/LAPACK implementation. Choose one of these package sets:
* OpenBLAS (includes both a BLAS and a LAPACK implementation)
* atlas (includes both a BLAS and a LAPACK implementation)
* blas, lapack (the Netlib reference implementations)
If more than one set is installed (assuming there are no packaging conflicts)
then the auto-detection will use the first implementation from this list that
it finds. If in doubt, choose the Netlib reference implementations; other
packages that require a BLAS or LAPACK implementation may not build if they
are not configured to detect/use alternate implementations.
These optional dependencies will be used if found (see INSTALL.OCTAVE, in the
Octave source, for a description of what each dependency offers):
amd, camd, colamd, ccolamd, cholmod, umfpack, cxsparse, glpk, arpack-ng,
qrupdate, sundials, qhull, hdf5, fltk, ftgl, gl2ps, jdk, GraphicsMagick,
portaudio.
Octave can use ImageMagick (part of Slackware) or GraphicsMagick (available
from SBo) for image-reading functionality. If both are installed,
GraphicsMagick will be selected by default, since ImageMagick is not
well-supported by the Octave developers. If you have problems with
ImageMagick, try rebuilding Octave with GraphicsMagick, or pass MAGICK="" to
the script.
If you have arpack installed and the configure script segfaults when trying to
detect arpack, try switching to arpack-ng (which is partly maintained by
Octave developers).
