[packman] Fw: QTOCTAVE 0.8.1 openSuSE 11.0

[Neijing Sahni]

Hello Team,
  I've updated qtoctave from Packman repository http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/packman/suse/11.0 and had the errors mentioned below.

Would appreciate if you can test and fix the same!

If already reported/fixed, apologies, as i don't update everyday...;)

Hi, this is a package of OpenSuse, and you must report the bug to OpenSuse:

http://en.opensuse.org/Submit_a_Bug

Installer of QtOctave works ok, if you install from source code.

Kind regards
