[OctDev] Re: Octave 2.1.37 available for ftp

[Etienne G. <et...@is...>]

  Hello,

I have just installed 2.1.37, but compilation of octave-forge ends
with :

======================================================================
mkoctfile -DHAVE_OCTAVE_21 -v fsolve.cc
g++ -c -fPIC -I/usr/local/include/octave-2.1.37 -I/usr/local/include/octave-2.1.37/octave -I/usr/local/include -mieee-fp -fno-implicit-templates -g -O2 -Wall -DHAVE_OCTAVE_21 fsolve.cc -o fsolve.o
fsolve.cc: In function `class octave_value_list Ffsolve(const octave_value_list &, int)':
fsolve.cc:211: no matching function for call to `NLEqn::set_options (NLEqn_options &)'
make[1]: *** [fsolve.oct] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/cdisk/etienne/prog/octave/octave-forge/octave-forge/FIXES'
make: *** [FIXES/] Error 2
======================================================================

  I would like to check whether the backward compatibility problem
with is_XXX() still exists, and if it does, transform all relevant
sourceforge files.

  Since this is a big step, I guess the procedure is transform, test
and send a patch for people to check, and then commit?

  Cheers,

  Etienne
