README.html : this file
SOURCES : patches
SPECS : spec. files
scilab-2.4-1a.ppc.rpm : binary RPM
scilab-2.4-1a.src.rpm : source RPM
Origin
- ftp://ftp.inria.fr/INRIA/Projects/Meta2/Scilab/scilab-2.4- src.tar.gz
An unofficial ppc patch was created:
- scilab-2.4-ppc.patch
to build SCILAB on MkLinux/LinuxPPC.
How to Build Scilab from SRC
The RPM building procedure is described in its spec file:
- scilab.spec
You can rebuild the RPM using its corresponding SRPM as:
- # rpm --rebuild <somewhere>/ scilab-2.4-1a.src.rpm
Your can skip this step, if you use the prebuilt binary RPM.
Though the binary RPM package is built without "libmoto" for license reason,
you may want to build a private version with "libmoto".
In that case, replace "-lm" by "-lmoto -lm" wherever you find
"-lm" in the link flags.
Installation Instructions
- # rpm -Uvh <somewhere>/scilab-2.4-1a.ppc.rpm
Try
- $ export SCI=/opt/scilab
- $ export PATH=$PATH:$SCI/bin
- $ scilab
and hit the "Demos" button to popup a menu. Click any one
to see the demo.
Caution: The package is not yet tested intensively.
As usual, use it at your own risk.
