arpack error

[Levente Torok]

Dear Dave,

On octave 3.0.3 stable compiled on ubuntu linux I experienced the following:

octave:1> pkg list
arpack *| 1.0.6 | /usr/local/share/octave/packages/arpack-1.0.6

octave:2> pkg describe -verbose arpack
---
Package name:
arpack
Short description:
Octave bindings to ARPACK, including the eigs and svds function.
Status:
Loaded
---
Provides:
Linear algebra
eigs
svds

octave:3> help eigs

help: `eigs' not found
-
furthermore
'eigs' is not tabcompleted.
this is not surprise:
ls /usr/local/share/octave/packages/arpack-1.0.6/
doc packinfo svds.m

So eigs is supposed to be there but it is not there.

After reinstalling arpack I experienced the same issue.
Am I doing something wrong?
