The most recent official release is [https://octave.sourceforge.io/download.php?package=odepkg-0.8.5.tar.gz version 0.8.5], which however is out of date (it includes functions which have been transferred to core Octave) and [https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=46309 will] [https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=48280 not] [https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=50684 install] at all with recent compilers and versions of Octave.

If you attempt to install odepkg using pkg install -forge, you will get an error such as the following.
Some functions of the original ''odepkg''  [[Move some ODE package functions from Octave-Forge to core|have been transferred to core Octave]] in the versions [[Release History|4.2 and 4.4]].  Those are:
 
* {{Manual|ode15i}}
* {{Manual|ode15s}}
* {{Manual|ode23}}
* {{Manual|ode45}}
* {{Manual|odeget}}
* {{Manual|odeset}}
* {{Manual|odeplot}}
 
If you attempt to install ''odepkg'' using <code>pkg install -forge</code>, you will get the following error:


  error: get_forge_pkg: package not found: "odepkg".
  error: get_forge_pkg: package not found: "odepkg".


Until a new official release is made, Octave 4.2.x users might consider installing a development snapshot of the package, as follows:
== BitBucket repository ==
 
Some further development on the ''odepkg'' takes place on https://bitbucket.org/odepkg/odepkg.  One can install that version for:
 
* Octave 4.2:


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


To install under the 4.3.0+ development version of Octave one can use the following instead:
* Octave 4.4 and newer:


  <nowiki>
  <nowiki>
  [fname, success] = urlwrite ("https://bitbucket.org/odepkg/odepkg/get/octave43.tar.gz", [P_tmpdir "/odepkg.tar.gz"]);
  [fname, success] = urlwrite ("https://bitbucket.org/odepkg/odepkg/get/octave43.tar.gz", [P_tmpdir "/odepkg.tar.gz"]);
  assert (success)
  assert (success)
  pkg ("install", fname)
  pkg ("install", fname)</nowiki>
</nowiki>
