Martin:
Thank you again for the help. I was unaware of the science repository,
and
so my version of octave was coming from Packman. However, I removed that
version, de-activated Packman, added the science repository and installed
octave, octave-devel, and octave-forge, which I assumed was a roll-up of all
the packages. To my surprise, no packages were installed under this
arrangement. So what is the octave-forge rpm? I had to go back to the
repository and individually install the rpm for signal (and its automatic
dependencies). The appropriate packages (5 in total) now appear in the
/usr/share/octave/packages directory, and are automatically loaded upon octave
startup.
