FreeBSD

The easiest way to obtain GNU Octave is to install the precompiled package as root user:

  pkg install octave

Another possibility is to build Octave from source via Ports[1]. Make sure you have your Port tree updated. Check FreeBSD documentation about how to do that. Then, as root, type:

  cd /usr/ports/math/octave 
  make install clean

Some Octave Forge packages can be installed in the same way:

  pkg install octave-forge

or via Ports[2].

OpenBSD

The easiest way to obtain GNU Octave is to install the precompiled package as root user:

  pkg_add octave

Another possibility is to build Octave from source via Ports[3].
