Re: a cs-list cannot be further indexed

[jimwoods]

I had this same problem (below), using the version of Octave 3.2.3 on the
Ubuntu Lucid Lynx repositary.  I read the advice below and compiled Octave
3.2.4 from source, but I get just the same problem over again.

I didn't understand the statement:

>> IIRC this bug is fixed when octcdf is built against the development
>> sources. 

The version I compiled from source was the latest stable release.  Is there
a particular version of octave that I need to compile?  Do I need to compile
OctCDF from source as well?  

Thanks,

LW

The bug is (partially) in Octave, so you need to build Octave from
sources in order to get rid of this problem.
The procedure is roughly:

1. install Mercurial, git, BLAS, LAPACK
2. optionally install SuiteSparse, fftw, FLTK, OpenGL, pcre, libcurl, qhull
then do
hg clone http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave
cd octave
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
make install # as root
