Hello,

I am trying this on Slackware 14.2 (64-bit) OS. 

I get this error message:

I am unable to find the reason for this.

Any clues to correct this?

Thanks for your hellp.

The error "undefined symbol: dgegs_" looks like something is wrong with LAPACK on your system.  I don't know anything about Slackware, but are all those dependencies BLAS, LAPACK, ... correctly installed?  Are binaries of Octave available, that you installed on your system and how did you obtain the control package you are using?

HTH,
