I believe sparsersb should make the following change in its configure.ac file:

Calling "octave --no-gui --no-window-system" is the safest way to run Octave on all platforms to ensure that Octave's CLI mode runs.

running pkg rebuild, then pkg update on a fresh Octave 4.2.1 install (64bit, zip installer, windows 7) terminates early with the following:

a pkg list before pkg update showed pkg 1.0.2 installed. pkg list after this failed update still shows sparsersb 1.0.2, but no \packages\sparsersb-1.0.x folder exists. another pkg rebuild shows no sparsersb package installed.

Because pkg moves through the list alphabetically, no further packages were updated (stk at 2.3.4, video at 1.2.3, etc.)

if I run a separate pkg install -forge sparsesb, I get the same .configure messages:

but the install completes without error. a subsequent pkg update goes through the rest of the packages without error.
