[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54176] [MXE-Octave] can't build stable Octave

[John Donoghue]

Follow-up Comment #15, bug #54176 (project octave):

makeinst-script.sh currrently extract the version usinf:

VERSION=`echo $OCTAVE_VERSION | sed -n 's,\([0-9\.]*\).*,\1,p'`

so is only grabbing the numbers

you could change that to 

VERSION=`echo $OCTAVE_VERSION` 

and see if it will work, however as I said in comment 29, for some reason I
recall that anything not numeric was an issue.


Alternatively, the issue you are seeing is registry key values, vs the
application version.
So perhaps any registry key for install and uninstall should change from

Octave-$VERSION

to 

Octave-$OCTAVE_VERSION
