The package buils correctly and is lintian clean, but there are 3 failures in the testsuite: 1) princomp.m: this failure is expected 2) tbl_delim.m: this is because the file is under private/ subdir, and octave-pkg-dev does not deal with this 3) linkage.m: this failure is spurious, because the tests pass when I run "test linkage" after installing the package. But if you put this in a M-file: warning foo test linkage Then this M-file fails: it is as if the first warning was corrupting the test which is performed in linkage. In the package testsuite, it is the warning created by princomp which interferes with the test in linkage. I guess this is a bug in Octave, unless you have a better explanation. So on the overall I think the package is ok and can be uploaded. We have to think about solutions for 2) and 3). For 2), I suggest to file a bug against octave-pkg-dev until we have the time to work this out (probably after the 3.4 transition). Any suggestion for 3) ?
