Octave can be built on cygwin too !

Pre-requisites

Setup your system the same way as described on page Octave for Debian systems. The next step is to tweak a bit the texlive configuration file: (remember cygwin as no sudo command)

   vi /usr/share/texmf-dist/web2c
   

Change

   TEXMFLOCAL = $TEXMFROOT/texmf-site

into

   TEXMFLOCAL = $TEXMFROOT/texmf-site:$TEXMFROOT/texmf

Then run

   mktexlsr
    

Build

Now you are ready to built your
