problems with 2.1.71 and Octave-Forge |

Since updating from Octave 2.1.64 to 2.1.71-1, with Octave-Forge
2004.11.16-5 (Fink distribution, built on Mac OS 10.3), I've been
experiencing a number of problems. Here are a couple of symptoms.
octave:1> help sin
sh: line 1: sed: command not found
sin is a built-in function
Additional help for built-in functions, operators, and variables
is available in the on-line version of the manual. Use the command
`help -i <topic>' to search the manual index.
Help and information about Octave is also available on the WWW
at http://www.octave.org and via the address@hidden
mailing list.
octave:2> help sparse
sh: line 1: sed: command not found
sparse is the dynamically-linked function from the file
/sw/lib/octave/2.1.71/site/oct/powerpc-apple-darwin/octave-forge/
sparse.oct
Additional help for built-in functions, operators, and variables
is available in the on-line version of the manual. Use the command
`help -i <topic>' to search the manual index.
Help and information about Octave is also available on the WWW
at http://www.octave.org and via the address@hidden
mailing list.
That is, using the 'help' command, all I get is a statement of whether
the function is built-in or user-defined, and if the latter, where the
function file is, but no actual help text. Also, when using
Octave-Forge's 'wavread' function, I get the following error:
octave:3> [x,sr]=wavread('~/Desktop/exe2.wav')
warning: in fopen near line 13, column 5:
warning: fopen: default open mode is now binary
error: fread: invalid stream number = -1
error: evaluating assignment expression near line 14, column 4
error: called from `wavread' in file
`/sw/share/octave/2.1.71/site/m/octave-forge/audio/wavread.m'
Does anybody have a clue what's causing this?
