Octave 3.2.4 is missing control package [SOLVED]

I read that control package is no longer part of default Octave installation (unfortunately), so how do I install it?

Is the control package part of any Octave's use flag?

Thanks.

You could try the Science Overlay: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/science/wiki/en
It seems to have, at least, the control package you're referring to ( unofficial list here ).

Thanks.

I also found out that I could install it manually by using

Code: Select all

pkg install packagename.tar.gz

It appears that they might overhaul that particular package due to the amount of obsolete/outdated commands.
