[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#714360: src:octave: does not work with glpk 4.51-1

[Sébastien Villemot]

Package: src:octave
Version: 3.6.4-3
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
Usertags: glpk
Control: forwarded -1 https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=39038

Octave 3.6.4 is not compatible with the last version of glpk (4.51-1) which is
currently in experimental. Some obsolete functions were removed from glpk, but
Octave still uses them.

As a consequence, the configure script of Octave fails to detect glpk (but
Octave nevertheless compiles), and the resulting Octave binary does not have
the functionality provided by the glpk.m function. I attach a build log for
reference.

The severity of this bug report will be raised when the new version of glpk is
uploaded to unstable.
