In installation of optim, the following lines of PKG_ADD: __all_opts__ ("nonlin_residmin"); __all_opts__ ("residmin_stat"); are automatically executed to register the names of optimset-options of nonlin_residmin and residmin_stat with Octave. __all_opts__ will call optimset with the respective function names as argument, which in turn calls the functions with the calls nonlin_residmin ("defaults"); residmin_stat ("defaults"); to retrieve their arguments. A failure of this call is caught with try-catch and produces the error message which you have seen as a warning, since __all_opts__ converts it to a warning with try-catch. That is why I said the above calls must be failing on your system. Have you tried it? Olaf ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ridiculously easy VDI.
