I have successfully used MacPorts to port Octave and the Image
package (after much work). However, other packages that I am
interested in were at 1 or more revs behind what is on
octavesourceforge.net and thus missing functions that I need. So I
started to look at alternatives and it seems to me the best place to
get the most up-to-date Octave and Octave packages is at
octavesourceforge.net. Most of the packages at this site are very
straight forward to install.... but the image package seems to be a
bear (for me anyway). I have a couple of questions.
1) The description of the image package lists buildrequires - jpg-
devel. Do I need to install jpg-devel before installing the image
pkg? If so where can I get it? I googled for it but could not find it.
2) Can someone give me instructions for installing ImageMagick for
MAC OS X 10.4.11 so that it works with Octave/Image pkg? I tried
using the instructions given in the Octave readme file for installing
the gsl package but this did not work (it failed to make). i got the
ImageMagick-6.4.6-2.tar.gz from the ImageMagick ftp site.
3) Is GraphMagick also a requirement? I see some comments about this
in some of the forums but it is not listed as a requirement in the
Image package description on octavesourceforge.net.
My system: MacBook Pro, OS X 10.4.11, Intel
Thanks,
Bob
