Package: octave-gdf
Version: 0.1.2-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
The current version of libgdf in sid build-depends on octave3.2-headers.
This later package will be removed from unstable once the transition to
the new version of octave (currently 3.6.1) will be completed (see the
wiki page of the DOG [1]).
The libgdf package needs octave3.2-headers for including the makefile
fragment defs.make and for calling the octave-depends script that makes
the substitution of ${octave:Depends}. These files have been dropped in
the Debian packaging of Octave 3.6.1.
I am attaching below a patch for fixing the issues in this bug report.
The patch was obtained through debdiff. I added the corresponding entries
to debian/changelog. The octave-gdf package should now simply depend on
octave. Note that the octave-gdf package will, in fine, depend on
liboctave1, which will pull the appropriate version of octave (3.6.1-4,
currently).
I also added the files octave-gdf.docs and octave-gdf.examples to the
debian/ directory for installing the functions documentation and the
provided examples. I think that these are useful additions.
