Unable to install yapso using pkg install

[aravind b]

I have installed Kubuntu 7.10 and was able to successfully install yapso
with just:

*$ sudo aptitude install octave2.9-headers libpng12-dev freeglut3-dev*

and

*octave:1> pkg install -verbose yapso-0.3.4.tar.gz*

The octave version that I have now is 2.9.12.
It is my pleasure to thank Soren, and Marc for your eagerness to help !
