Hello,

I am trying to install Octave on RedHat 8. It configures fine but when I do make I get this error:

In file included from mx-defs.h:73,
from dColVector.h:32,
from Bounds.h:32,
from Bounds.cc:33:

make[1]: *** [liboctave] Error 2

It seems like this is where the error starts, has anyone installed this successfully and know what is going wrong here?

thanks,

What gcc are you using?

I am using gcc version 3.2
