The second release candidate for Octave 4.2.0 is available from

There may be some problems that need to be fixed so this version may not become the 4.2.0 release without some changes but I hope to not have more than one or two more release candidates before the 4.2.0 release is final.

Please try to build this version and report any problems you find in the bug tracker.  I've added a new version tag for the release candidate, so please use that when reporting problems.

In installer for Windows will be available from the same location once it is finished building and I've had a chance to test the installer and run the test suite.

Hi,

while trying to build the source on ubuntu 16.04, I get 2 warnings during 'sudo make install'  that "libinterp/***" was not installed in "/opt/octave_dev". Is this okay to continue? I did not get such warnings while compiling octave earlier.

I used "/opt/octave_dev" as prefix.

The make install succeeded and I can use octave without errors(as far as I can see).

I tried this on my Linux machine and it didn't give any errors.  Maybe there is just something weird with your local Linux configuration.  As long as 'make check' passes, we can probably ignore it.
