Re: Latest Octave for Ubuntu?

[Nir Krakauer]

The most configurable solution (which I use) is to compile Octave
yourself, see [1] for details.

There are also several other quicker options to get an up-to-date
release, such as using an Octave Snap or Flatpak [2], although these
can sometimes have problems also.
