Subject: octave-plplot: doesn't work at all
Package: octave-plplot
Version: 5.8.0~RC1-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

octave-plplot doesn't work at all, e.g.:

octave:1> plot([1:10])
usage: plot (y)
       plot (x, y, ...)
       plot (x, y, fmt, ...)       plot (x, y, property, value, ...)
error: evaluating if command near line 28, column 3
error: called from `__plt__' in file 
`/usr/share/octave/2.9.17/m/plot/__plt__.m'
error: called from `plot' in file `/usr/share/plplot_octave//plot.m'

Also, the documentation says to use LOADPATH, which doesn't work for octave2.9 
anymore;
you have to use the addpath function instead.
