[Pkg-octave-devel] questions on packaging an octave toolbox

[Jameson Graef Rollins]

Hi, folks.  I'm back to trying to get this octave packaging working and
I'm still having trouble.

I have an upstream project that builds oct and mex files via swig as
part of a much larger autoconf/automake build process.  All of the
resulting files (oct, mex, .m) are installed in usr/lib/octave.  There
are no octave forge packages created.

So I'm trying to figure out the best way to get those files installed in
the right places.  At the moment I'm trying to dynamically generate
debian .dirs and .install files based on the output of `octave-config
--m-site-dir` and `octave-config --m-site-dir`.  This is pretty
cumbersome, though.

Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

jamie.
