According to the tag description¹, there are legitimate cases where the library is not linked to libc, in which case lintian will still complain. It looks like this is such a situation, because the library is not underlinked.² So I would simply add an override.

This issue was already discussed on the old list (Pkg-octave-devel) a long time ago (november 2015, look for "octave-stk: current status / help needed" in the title).

The discussion resulted in the following overrides:

 $ cat debian/octave-stk.lintian-overrides
 # Ignore library-not-linked-against-libc warning
 # since no symbol from libc is used in this mex-files:
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_dist_matrixx__.mex
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_dist_matrixy__.mex
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_dist_pairwise__.mex
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_distrib_bivnorm0_cdf__.mex
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_filldist_discr_mex__.mex
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_gpquadform_matrixx__.mex
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_gpquadform_matrixy__.mex
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_gpquadform_pairwise__.mex
 octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_mindist_mex__.mex

So, I don't understand why you still get warnings...

The overrides have been dropped some time ago:
