Installing Octave 3.0 on RHEL 5

[Surajit Das]

Thanks Peter for replying. I had the following error

undefined reference to `__cxa_get_exception_ptr'

This was because g77 was used as fortran compiler. Changed the compiler to 
gfortran(export F77=gfortran) and everything worked.

Regards,

Surajit
