Eh, were did you get this version with your apt settings below?

I suppose it loads an .oct file at some point and can't find it. I've
removed a Debian-specific patch for this known problem (#477556),
because I thought it was fixed in the 3.0.2 release, which it wasn't. 

It's fixed in the 3.0.3 release, though. 

Then again, it might just be that the nan package and the octave package
have incompatible ABI interfaces (there's a reason 3.0.2 is in
experimental!) due to me passing a --host flag to configure, which means
we need a recompile.

This is all a bit terse, but it boils down to: the current octave3.0
package in experimental is just that: experimental.
