Package: octave-symbolic
Version: 1.0.7-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi, I have installed octave symbolic from 'experimental' on a clean 'squeeze' installation. 
Typing symbols - octave complains about 'undefined symbol. 
I believe these is still the same bug as 512075 which was closed. 
I installed the package 'octave-headers' and 'libginac-dev' and used the
command 'pkg install symbolic-1.0.7.tar.gz' inside octave on the source
file I downloaded from octave forge to bypass this problem.
