Problem with GNU Octave

[alfredoivan]

Hello,
I've downloaded the appimage from here: https://fusion809.github.io/appimages/
GNU Octave works flawlessly for some test scripts.
However, when i try to install a package:
>> pkg -forge install linear-algebra

pkg: unable to find the mkoctfile command, Octave installation is incomplete

error: called from
install at line 202 column 5
pkg at line 394 column 9

It seems the mkoctfile command comes with Octave by default: https://octave.sourceforge.io/octave/index.html

So it is like the appimage cannot find the command (the binary?) among its files.
Can you help troubleshoot this problem?
Aside from that, the appimage seems to work quite well in my Ubuntu 14.04.1 OS

Sorry mate, I don't know. This repo is more here for archival purposes now, sorry. Besides this AppImage is a little old now. I'm actually surprised it still works fairly well.

Hello @alfredoivan maybe you'd like to get involved with the GNU Octave community to get an official AppImage produced? https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/get-involved.html
