[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#500783: octave-nan: the nan package should not be autoloaded

[Francesco Potorti`]

Package: octave-nan
Version: 1.0.6-1
Severity: normal

The nan package overloads many functions, which means it should not be
autoloaded.  It currently is, which I think is wrong.

Mabe the same is true of other packages as well.
