[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#520220: octave3.0: This release candidate snapshot should not enter testing

[Rafael Laboissiere]

Package: octave3.0
Version: 1:3.0.4~rc5-2
Severity: serious

This version of the octave3.0 package is based on a release candidate
snapshot for the upcoming 3.0.4 version.  The upstream authors have told 
us [1] that release candidates should not be distributed as Debian packages.

Let us keep this version in unstable for now.
