[Pkg-octave-devel] Packages with PKG_ADD fial to build

[Rafael Laboissiere]

I have already asked this in octave-dev, but got no reply.  Asking again here:

I cannot build correctly packages having PKG_ADD files at the top dir.  For
instance, octave-combinatorics fails with the following error message:

octave3.0 -f -H -q --no-site-file --eval                   \
        "addpath ('/usr/share/octave/debian/m', '-begin'); \
         pkg ('prefix', [pwd(),'/debian/octave-combinatorics/usr/share/octave/packages'],       \
              [pwd(),'/debian/octave-combinatorics/usr/lib/octave/packages']);          \
         pkg ('local_list', [pwd(),'.']);               \
         pkg ('global_list', [pwd(),'.']);              \
         pkg -verbose -nodeps install ."
error: `fullfile' undefined near line 1 column 22
error: evaluating argument list element number 2
error: near line 1 of file `./PKG_ADD'
error: source: error sourcing file `./PKG_ADD'

Does someone know how to get around this problem?
