Thanks for your work. In my opinion, the latest version of octave could directly be uploaded to unstable. The risk of breakage is minimal, since we’re following the stable branch of octave. There are at least two additional changes that I would like to make before the bullseye release: - reinstate the build dependency on sundials, since the latter has migrated back to testing, and octave 6 should normally be compatible with sundials 4 - fix upstream bug #59704, which badly impacts Dynare.¹ There is a candidate patch, but it still needs review by other octave devs. I will probably make those changes once the latest version of octave migrates to testing.
