Needs suitesparse at runtime now, and I added portaudio as optional dependency.

Well, I finally managed to build this package. Here is the complete procedure: > yaourt -S octave-hg # This intall fails. # On my computer, two folders are created : # /tmp/makepkg contain the cloned sources from git and hg # /tmp/yaourt-tmp-[username]/aur-octave-hg => this is the directory we want to use # To clone octave-hg manually : > hg clone http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave # then copy the newly created /tmp/octave directory in # /tmp/yaourt-tmp-[username]/aur-octave-hg # Run bootstrap > /tmp/yaourt-tmp-[username]/aur-octave-hg/octave/./bootstrap # Launch makepkg -i from /tmp/yaourt-tmp-[username]/aur-octave-hg # Once the package is compiled, simply run the command > pacman -U octave-hg-xxxxxxxxx-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

I'm stuck with the installation of octave-hg due to the already mentioned "can't find /tmp/octave-hg/octave/gnulib-hg" issue. I'm trying to follow the suggestions from haawda and roadrunner but I'm not sure what to copy from where to where. I tried several things that do not work. I'm not an expert with these manual build things. The failed install was working in the /tmp/.../aur-octave-hg directory and created ./gnulib and ./octave subdirs. Can anybody give a more detailed procedure ? Any help would be really appreciated here :)

even after adding the texlive-core I get the same error message. I'm not sure what is wrong. For the time-being I have disabled document generation. On another note has anybody experienced an improvement with JIT enabled. Thanks again @haawda

--disable-java is correct, because in both cases - id est with java enabled - libjvm.so is not found by the build system. I added texlive-core to the makedependencies, maybe this fixes your problem with the missing pngs.

@haawda thanks a lot for the effort. Now, the build is moving past the suitesparse lib problem, however gets stuck up at the documentation building step. I have pasted the build error in the following link: http://pastebin.com/VUCP4jha I'm not sure what causes the problem. Any help will be appreciated. In the PKGBUILD there is both --enable-java and --disable-java options used. Is this valid?
