The alien utility could be an interesting possibility for Sebastien, but I
think the DOG should package the Octave Workshop officially for Debian.
Unfortunately, I have no free time to undertake this task right now.

The Mail-Followup-To header, which I set to pkg-octave-devel@l.a.d.o and
you did not respect, since you cross-posted to octave-maintainers.
Please, either fix your MUA (mail user agent), which is not honoring the
M-F-T header, or be careful to send followups only to the pkg-octave-devel
mailing list, eventually Cc:ing to Sebastien.
