slitaz rolling: octave misses libraries

Hi,

I am testing latest rolling (2012-Aug-26 18:19:40 build) on my laptop. Boot live CD.

The octave package is not complete because of missing librairies:

[c]tux@slitaz:~/Documents$ octave
octave: error while loading shared libraries: libfltk_gl.so.1.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
octave: error while loading shared libraries: libquadmath.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
tux@slitaz:~/Documents$[/c]
In order to get the libraries I had to install "fltk" and "gcc":

[c]root@slitaz:/home/tux/Documents# tazpkg -gi fltk
root@slitaz:/home/tux/Documents# tazpkg -gi gcc
root@slitaz:/home/tux/Documents#[/c]
Now octave runs smoothly:

[c]tux@slitaz:~/Documents$ octave

Probably that installing "fltk and gcc" is not required if the missed libraries were copied from somewhere... But it was faster for me to install them.

Would be nice if a dev could update the octave receipt. ;-)

Cheers.
