You have a locally installed octave in /usr/local/bin. You should delete
this (broken) copy of Octave before installing or upgrading any octave
packages from the Ubuntu repositories. Ubuntu's octave package is not in
error here, it is the copy of Octave that you had previously built from
source and installed globally on your system.

Feel free to confirm by responding here if removing everything octave
under /usr/local fixes this problem, but I am fairly certain it will.

** Changed in: octave (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
