octave2.1

OK, I reproduced it. Seem to happen when octave2.1 is being set up, and
octave3.0 has just been unpacked.

so apt-get install octave2.1 octave3.0 reproduces this:
root at grelon-116:~# schroot -c sid32 -- apt-get install -y octave2.1 octave3.0
I: [sid32-9976716e-dbd2-473c-8e28-6c4ff9d6be83 chroot] Running command: "apt-get install -y octave2.1 octave3.0"
