Linalg 0.4 fails to install in Scilab 2024

I need to use the Stixbox, and Stixbox wants linalg. The latest version of linalg appears to be 0.4. It all works fine in Scilab 2023, but in 2023, while installing libalg, I get:

Hello,

I just updated the linalg and distfun toolboxes for scilab 2024 and all platforms/os (they have C gateways which had to be rebuilt). If you refresh the list of available packages:

atomsSystemUpdate()

you will be able to install stixbox (toolboxes with only .sci files will be built on the fly).

S.
