Details:

I tried to process an image via:

>> [l, Am, C] = slic(im, 3000, 10, 10, 'median');
warning: the 'whitepoint' function belongs to the image package from Octave
Forge
which seems to not be installed in your system.

This seems to fail with the default MacOSX binary installed for 3.8.0.
Compiling on MacOSX is already difficult, so the binary install should come
with these packages already compiled so that everything works by default.

Anyway, I then tried to run this:

pkg install -forge general control signal image

It fails with the following compiler error:

pkg: error running `make' for the control package.


So, it looks like the control package fails to compile on MacOSX 10.9.5.
Please fix this since it makes use of Octave impossible. There is no point in
a binary installer that fails to actually install binaries that actually
work.
