Contents of README: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 either Qt4 or Qt5, and it will select Qt5 if both are installed. You can force it to use a particular version by passing QT=4 or QT=5 to the script. If Qt5 is selected and it does not find a Qt5 version of QScintilla, then the editor window in the GUI will be disabled. If you need the editor window and have both Qt versions installed, force it to use Qt4. 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). |
