Look in /usr/share/lintian , for example ..

This stuff is for debian package management..
It doesn't apply to .dsl or .tar.gz files..

I frequently find them in extensions,
probably from using .debs for making .dsl's and .tar.gz's

I'm not much of a linux guru.
but I do need the use of octave for a course I'm doing.
could someone explain the exact procudure they used (including file location) to get octave running on dsl?
thanks


edit:
nm
I was so annoyed at being unable to install octave on SME server (stupid red hat rpm's) that I completely forgot that dsl was debian based...
'apt-get install octave' is sooo much nicer than hunting down several hundred rpm files
