I prepared an NMU which fixes both Octave and Qt bugs.

It is available through:

 dget http://www.dynare.org/sebastien/pfstools_1.8.5-0.1.dsc

I had to update to a new upstream version to fix the Qt bug, and I also
had to move to 3.0 (quilt) format to fix a Lintian error (I could have
used an override but switching to quilt was very easy and the override
would only hide a real problem).

Thomas: would you be ok to sponsor this NMU? According to devref
§5.11.1, it can be uploaded to DELAYED/5 (one RC bug + one important
bug).

Best,
