I am a bit confused. I think you might be trying to install fltk as if
if was an octave package. I guess you have got a tarball of fltk
source which needs compiling and installing onto your operating
system, not directly onto octave. start by trying to find a fltk
pacakge through your OS package manager. Then you need to find out if
the version of octave you are using was compiled with fltk support. If
you want more help it would be a good idea to tell us where you got
octave from (did you compile it yourself?).
