help with octave (libsunperf)

[Oliver Kiddle]

I've been trying to get octave to build and have been fairly successful
by using libsunperf to get blas/lapack and using the Solaris Studio
Fortran compiler but g++ for the C++.

The problem is that the end result won't work without setting
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I think it has something todo with the locations of our
copies of things like libsunperf under /opt/csw. Note the following:

ldd /opt/csw/lib/sparcv8/libsunperf.so.7
      libfsu.so.1 =>   (file not found)
        etc...

You can get a clearer picture of what is going on by setting
LD_DEBUG=libs for this. I don't really understand what is going on: why
doesn't $ORIGIN/.. work for finding libfsu.so.1? Do we perhaps need to
closer mirror the directory structure from below /opt/SUNWspro for these
libraries?

Thanks

Oliver
