Dear Release Team,
This is a pre-approval request for unblocking package octave, version 6.2.0-1
Currently, bullseye contains a hand-crafted mercurial snapshot of octave.
Uploading a snapshot was made necessary because the previous official release
(6.1.0) had serious bugs, which were fixed in the mercurial repository.
Since then, a new official upstream bugfix release has been made (6.2.0). For
various reasons, it would be better to ship an official release in bullseye,
hence this request.
The debdiff is attached. I have filtered out all unrelevant stuff (copyright
header changes, regenerated files).
