[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48618] Image package: Warnings when installing ver 2.5.1. in dev branch

[Carnë Draug]

Follow-up Comment #14, bug #48618 (project octave):

Thanks. I changed some things on the maintainers Makefile so "make all" should
now work. Please update your clone then try "make clean && ./bootstrap && make
all". This should now build all the oct files.

However, I didn't actually change anything in the files that will get
installed so unless you changed something else on the system, it should still
warn and there is still something to be fixed. I just don't know yet.

Please confirm if "make all" works correctly now. If not please reattach the
new config.log. If yes, try "make install".  If it still gives warnings, do
the following changes:

0 in the Makefile at the root of the image package, look for 'pkg ("install",
"${RELEASE_TARBALL}")' and change it for 'pkg ("install", "-verbose",
"${RELEASE_TARBALL}")'
0 in the file '/usr/local/share/octave/4.1.0+/m/pkg/private/install.m (or the
equivalent in your Octave installation), look for this lines (around line
286):


  ## All is well, let's clean up.
  for i = 1:length (tmpdirs)
    [status, msg] = rmdir (tmpdirs{i}, "s");
    if (status != 1 && exist (tmpdirs{i}, "dir"))
      warning ("couldn't clean up after my self: %s\n", msg);
    endif
  endfor


and comment the lines.  If you do this, then after you run "make install",
there will be a a directory with a random name like "/tmp/oct-XXXXX". Attach
the src/config.log inside that directory.
