Oh fsck. Okay, I'm rebuilding as 3.12-0.1 now. To avoid fiddling with epochs,
I have deleted the 3.12-1.0 from Incoming after assurring myself that the
package had indeed not been installed.

Good to know. I marked that in the updated changelog file.
Thanks for spotting my mistakes. Now I'm left with rebuilding Octave so that
it can indeed depend on info (>= 3.12-0.1). Three Octave builds in 24hrs, and
having been at work at day ...
Cheers, Dirk
