I see.  The compatibility with Octave 4.2 is an important issue, indeed, since we are packaging odepkg for Debian.  I prefer to wait until the next upstream release, though. Do you know whether this is going to happen soon?

At any rate, users are warned about the function overloading once they load odepkg 0.8.5 package in Octave 4.2.

Even though it might be working I'm not sure it is a
good idea to install odepkg 0.8.5 in Octave 4.2 as some
functions (actually the most commonly used ones, e.g. ode45 and odeset) were moved from octave-forge into Octave core
in 4.2.0, so loading the package will overload these
functions.

The versions of these functions in Octave core also contain
substantial algorithm and interface improvements so overloading
them will be a sort of downgrade.

I am using version 4.2.1 of Octave.  The package is working perfectly for me.  All tests succeeded, besides that one that I inidicated in my original bug report.

And what version of Octave?

I have been told odepkg does not work with current
Octave releases (4.2.x) ...

Anyway it would be helpful if you could check whether the same problem also applies to odepkg 0.9.1 which is as of yet unreleased.

If you are using Octave 4.2.x you can install
a development snapshot as follows:


[fname, success] = urlwrite ("https://bitbucket.org/odepkg/odepkg/get/default.tar.gz", [P_tmpdir "odepkg.tar.gz"]);
assert (success)
pkg ("install", fname)


If you are using the development version of Octave you can use
[fname, success] = urlwrite ("https://bitbucket.org/odepkg/odepkg/get/octave43.tar.gz", [P_tmpdir "odepkg.tar.gz"]);
assert (success)
pkg ("install", fname)


If you have an older version of Octave please upgrade before trying this.


thanks again!

Hi, thanks for the report!
What version of odepkg did you test?

[Something went wrong with the formatting of my bug report.  Here is what I meant:]

One of the unit tests in file odepkg_testsuite_calcmescd.m has a
wrong expected value:

%!assert (odepkg_testsuite_calcmescd ([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3], NaN, NaN), Inf);

It should be actually:

%!assert (odepkg_testsuite_calcmescd ([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3], NaN, NaN), NaN);
