[Pkg-octave-devel] [RFU] octave3.0 1:3.0.4~rc5-3

[Rafael Laboissiere <rafael@debian.org>]

I will soon upload octave3.0 3.0.4~rc5-3 to unstable, as in SVN r2732.
It has been committed a couple of days ago.  This version is just a sync
with the octave3.1 branch, introducing a fix for the typo in
configure.in which was causing autobuild failure on GNU/kFreeBSD
(Bug#520076).

I was holding on this upload just to see how the autobuilder for the
official architectures behave for 3.0.4~rc5-2.  I have seen only two
failures, one on hppa due to a segmentation fault in test_sparse.m [1],
and the other on sparc that seems to be due to some ucf weirdness.

I have bugged Jaroslav Hajek to release the final 3.0.4 with the patch
that fixes the graphics problem.  I hope it will be released soon, such
that we can close Bug#520220 and let 3.0.4 into testing.
