[opensuse] Octave installed by yast cannot use qhull
I have installed octave by yast, but the function griddata can not be used. I searched the internet, and found out that it's the lack of qhull that makes the situation. If installed by source, qhull/qhull_a.h cannot be found. The package qhull-devel only provides libqhull.h. What should I do ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Options: a. Locate the installed package in YaST2's 'Software Management' module and in the details for the package you find the maintainer and contact info. b. Check the documentation that was installed with the .rpm (usually found under /usr/share/doc/packages). The package maintainer and contact information is usually noted in there, as well. If you write the maintainer, my experience is they are very interested in not deploying 'broken' or 'restricted' packages. They also know the software well enough that they can and usually will help you overcome these types of obstacles. hth & regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

octave building against qhull is in science repo, please test as soon as it is built (later today). You will need have also libqhull6-6_2_0_1385 from the same installed. Petr
