==== Installing using snap ====
https://snapcraft.io/install/octave/centos - Easiest way to install.
* Enable snapd. Snap is available for CentOS 7.6+, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:
    sudo yum install epel-release
* Snap can now be installed as follows:
    sudo yum install snapd
* Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
    sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
* To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
    sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
* Install octave. To install octave, simply use the following command:
    sudo snap install octave
