I see warning: pkg: skipping invalid line in DESCRIPTION file and @bye seen
before @end deftypefn warnings in win10 with 5.1.1
According the repo, the DESCRIPTION file error is fixed via
https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/geometry/ci/311b855168a67a0471572a353f96c2e
c4d800666/
polygonLoops.m has a double @deftypefn in the documentation which may be the
@bye warning - its not in the latest repo sources
In windows the geometry package should already be installed.
