When I try to plot anything in GNU Octave, I get this error.
octave:1> plot(linspace(1,2,30),linspace(1,1,30))
error: feval: /usr/lib/octave/5.2.0/oct/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/__init_fltk__.oct: failed to load: libfltk_gl.so.1.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

One workaround is to use gnuplot instead of fltk, but the plots look better with fltk. It turned out that blas was replaced by openblas during installing Julia, and after installing blas (by removing julia and openblas) it works again. So, how to make fltk work with openblas?
