Re: [OctDev] main ported to the package system

[David B. <Dav...@mo...>]

Ok, another nasty problem is that the admin/octlink.sh script is not
copied to the pkg src/ directories. Perhaps as teh package manager is
only in versions of octave which have the autoload function, this can
all be simplified, as only the .octlink fashion of dealing with the
files needs to be treated. That is we should probably generate the
appropriate PKD_ADD file directly rather than use octlink.sh.. This
problem occurs wherecer symbolic links are used in octave-forge. Its
vital that autoload is used if possible to allow significant reduction
in binary size especially for cygwin and mingw platforms...

I'll work out a solution for the communications toolbox and propose it.
