[Scilab-users] installing latest scilab (5.5.1) version on udoo

[Tim Wescott]

Does Udoo have a graphical user's interface?  Does it have Synaptic
Package Manager?  If so, search on JOGL (you probably need the source)
and install it.

If not, then go on a web-walk and figure out how to do the same thing
using Aptitude.  You'll need to search for the right package the install
it using 

sudo apt-get install <package name>.  

Synaptic is just a convenient graphics interface to apt-this and
apt-that (It's for dummies like me).  Anything you can do from Synaptic
you can do from the command line -- probably better.

You may also want to see if there appears to be a package
(pseudo-package?) that has all the dependencies needed to build Scilab
for Debian.  There ought to be one, but that doesn't mean that someone
turned the "ought to be" into an "is".
