I may have missed something, but I don't know what "octave-depends" is. The substitution of ${octave:Depends} in debian/control is done by the script installed in /usr/share/octave/debian/dh/octave-pkg-helper. This script has not been renamed or removed in recent versions of octave-pkg-dev, so I don't really understand your problem. Maybe could you give more details about your package setup ant the FTBFS?
