Compilation error in ls-hdf5.cc

[Ivan Sutoris]

Hi

I have been trying to compile development version of Octave in
openSUSE 11.1. (after some problems in Cygwin, I decided to try real
Linux distro :) ) The compilation throws error in file /src/ls-hdf5.cc
(errors attached as text file), however HDF5 should be installed
correctly (it is detected with configure script). I got HDF from
distro's repositories [1], which provide version 1.8.1. That
(according to HDF website) is quite recent, with some changes when
compared to 1.6.x releases. Now,  I don't use (and I am not familiar
with) HDF, so I just configured and compiled octave without it, but I
guess this could be a problem for others (if the problem is indeed
incompatibility with new version), so I thought I should bring it to
attention.

Regards
