[Scilab-Dev] scilab build/install problem

Because make install will just install Scilab, not the dependencies.
Usually, you would install packages provided by the distrib. Thirdparty
is provided to help to develop Scilab (and by us to produce the binary).

You have to update librarypath.xml & classpath.xml to update the paths.
