Hello

I had some problems installing the io package, which I couldn't resolve.

I'm running Windows 10 Enterprise x64. My version of Octave is 4.4.1, which I
didn't install via the installer but by downloading  "octave-4.4.1-w64.zip (~
481 MB) [signature]" as I work on a managed computer and don't have admin
rights.

I could only install io-2.4.8. The later versions cause the following error:


>> pkg install io-2.4.9.tar.gz
warning: load_path: .\functions: No such file or directory
warning: load_path: .\input: No such file or directory
warning: load_path: .\geometry: No such file or directory
warning: load_path: .\input\inputfiles: No such file or directory
configure: error: in `/tmp/oct-wVZVlE/io-2.4.9/src':

If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

pkg: error running the configure script for io.
error: called from
    configure_make at line 82 column 9
    install at line 184 column 7

I thought maybe this could help to fix the problem for further versions of the
io-package.
