The solution for my issue is included in an old post from Mike Miller:
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?48881

The troublemaker was my user PATH variable, it contained entries for
"miniconda3", I fixed by a command
similar to this one:

export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:

The "octave-6.0.1.tar.lz" is now ready for use :-)

Stefan
