Hi all, I'm preparing an new release of octave which will have fftw3 as a build dependency. I also am going to link it with --enable-auto-image-base option.
Along with octave will go a new octave-forge release, which will inherit the new octave linker option. However, I have also discovered (by accident) that octave-forge will build and install its gsl functions if gsl is installed at the time octave-forge is built. And the gsl maintainer has in fact expressed some interest in having gsl supported in octave-forge. Now is the time to speak up. Should octave-forge support gsl? If so, it will become an installation dependency, as well as a build dependency. Opinions, please. Thanks, Jim Phillips
