    Can you help with this error message I receive when attempting to install Octplot under linux?  The output shown below appeared when I executed the ./configure command.  Thank you.

    checking for ieeefp.h... no
    checking for mkoctfile... no
    configure: WARNING: no mkoctfile found on path
    ./configure: line 4242: conftest.cc: command not found
    configure: error: Could not run

      Since you have supplied very litle informations (i.e. what distro are you using?, what version of cotave?) My answer will be genral. You are missing mkoctfile. Thsi means
      1. You do not have octave installed
      2. You have octave installed from a binary package but did not install the octave-dev or octave-headers package
