Sounds like good news for Yann. If he chooses to install octave  
instead of octave-atlas, he should have a functional gdl.

Back the the problem with Octave-atlas, I tried to build on my ppc  
based Mac, but the build of atlas failed.  Some of what I encountered  
is below.

$ fink install atlas atlas-shlibs

Is this a known problem on ppc (10.5) or shall I start a new thread?
