Details
Octave’s package mentions:
fltk: alternative plotting as an optional dependency. It turns out, however, that it is not optional. If fltk is not installed, trying to run Octave prints the following message: octave: error while loading shared libraries: libfltk_gl.so.1.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Installing fltk solves the problem. Thus, either it should be made a mandatory dependency or Octave should be built without support for it. Additional info: * package version: 3.6.0 Steps to reproduce: Install octave and remove fltk if it is installed, then run “octave”. |
