  Hello,

  I had a slight problem when applying the patch (I used the bz2 one):



etienne at anonimo:  patch -p0 < octave-2.1.17-2.1.18.patch 
patching file `octave-2.1.17/ChangeLog'
patching file `octave-2.1.17/doc/ChangeLog'
patching file `octave-2.1.17/doc/Makefile.in'
patching file `octave-2.1.17/doc/interpreter/Makefile.in'
can't find file to patch at input line 322
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff -cNr octave-2.1.17/doc/interpreter/system.txi octave-2.1.18/doc/interpreter/system.txi
|*** octave-2.1.17/doc/interpreter/system.txi   Fri Oct 16 13:05:28 1998
|--- octave-2.1.18/doc/interpreter/system.txi   Wed Oct 20 01:52:18 1999
--------------------------
File to patch: 


   The rest went fine (except for kron.m, which I had removed).

  Cheers,

  Etienne
