Initialization failure on Mac OS (Lion) and Matlab 2012a about pmtk3 HOT 9 OPEN

Same problem here

Seems to have the same problem.  In my case it failed at glmnet(x,y).  So I 
block out the entired %write glmnetInstalled.m part.  For now I'm able to run 
testPmtk3 to completion.

I appear to have the same problem as well. Mac OS 10.8.2. The dump shows a 
similar problem.

Same problem.

I also met this problem.

There is a try-catch statement after line "% /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.2.dylib 
is missing", but the catch statement fails to catch the error, as the error 
crashes Matlab. 

Solution: we know that glmnet() is failing on Mac, so the catch block should be 
executed. Replace that try-catch-end block with one line:

installed=false;

And then run initPmtk3 again.

I do not recommend following the solution in comment #2, as the function 
glmnetInstalled.m will not be created if you comment that block of code 
completely.
