Hello. I'm a bit confused by your set-up, so I'm returning this to the
mailing list. (Confused as usr is normally a top-level directory, as
in /usr, and not a subdirectory of ~/desktop, as in ~/desktop/usr, nor
~, as in ~/usr.)
I guess, though, that you do have a directory called usr in your home
directory, which in turn contains local/bin/mkoctfile, since
~/usr/local/bin/mkoctfile seems to exist.
I guess you might not have g++ installed? Or you might have it
installed, but not on the path. So we're back to paths again. Can you
compile C++ programs outside Octave? Where is the g++ executable that
you call to do so?
