Package: octave-dev Version: 7.3.0-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
I installed octave-dev and after building a standalone executable with mkoctfile it failed to run. I realized that what was needed was an ld.so.conf fragment containing the directory where the shared libraries were located. I created that fragment, with the contents /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/octave/7.3.0, named it octave-dev.conf, put that file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d, and ran ldconfig. This fixed the issue of running the standalone octave executable. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-17-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages octave-dev depends on: ii g++ 4:12.2.0-3 ii gcc 4:12.2.0-3 ii gfortran 4:12.2.0-3 ii libblas-dev [libblas.so] 3.11.0-2 ii libc6 2.36-9+deb12u3 ii libfftw3-dev 3.3.10-1 ii libgcc-s1 12.2.0-14 ii libgl-dev 1.6.0-1 ii libgl1-mesa-dev 22.3.6-1+deb12u1 ii libhdf5-dev 1.10.8+repack1-1 ii liblapack-dev [liblapack.so] 3.11.0-2 ii libncurses-dev [libncurses5-dev] 6.4-4 ii libreadline-dev 8.2-1.3 ii libstdc++6 12.2.0-14 ii octave 7.3.0-2 octave-dev recommends no packages. octave-dev suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
