Octave properly on Mavericks
Homebrew is fine
but ALWAYS
brew install octave --with-docs
or no packages will install inside octave (if you don't need packages, never mind the docs)
that in turn requires tex
you can
brew install Caskroom/cask/mactex
which builds a text installer that you can then run
- or download a binary, prolly much faster
After that you should be pretty golden and packages should install
I read this for what needs to install optim, the optimisers package
