I'm not a professor, just Mike :)

Yes, if you want to build from the mercurial repository you will need additional development tools including GNU libtool, see the file etc/HACKING in the octave source tree. This is not a bug.

You probably want to build from the released source distribution, see http://www.octave.org/download.

If you're having trouble installing or building Octave yourself, please send mail to the help mailing list (see http://www.octave.org/support). The bug tracker is not the correct place to ask for help setting up a development environment for building Octave. Please do feel free to file another bug report if you do manage to have all the required dependencies installed and find that there is a problem configuring Octave for your system.

Resmpected Proffesser Miller,
I do hg clone http://www.octave.org/hg/octave then wait then then do ./bootstrap and it give error reqeier glibtoolize or libtoolize. Where libtoolize AIX? If no found IBM AIX, Octave no build? If no build I tell proffesser give easy homewrok do by hand.

Hi, thanks for your bug report, but you're going to have to provide us with a lot more information than that. No one is testing Octave on AIX, so if you want to get it working you'll be largely on your own.

Specifically what did you download, and what have you tried running to compile and/or run Octave?
