Ok, so the GUI is starting, I'll assume that means I can close this bug report as invalid. If I misinterpreted, please explain what the remaining issue seems to be.

I have testes the features as you've requested.
all return 1 except for QT5
How to resolve this issue?

>Earlier I've removed Octave and deleted all files mentionning octave.

I've installed all the dependencies requested by octave.
I've run the following commands
- configure
- run_octave
- make
- make check
- make install

I"ve launched octave: the gui have been displayed and about version is well 4.2.1.

Thx for helping

If you installed Octave 4.2.1 from source, check your configure and build logs to make sure that you built it with Qt support. Run the following in Octave to verify how Octave was configured

If you can verify that Octave was built with Qt support and you have a working X environment, then some further investigation may be needed.
