The package is prepared in Git and its ITP is Bug#747039.
This package is quite large and complex. It seems to work for me, but I
did not test it thoroughly. Unfortunately, the upstream package has no
unit test suite. I sort of compensated that by exercising the
insts/demos/demo_*.m files in debian/check.m. It is better than doing no
tests, event though the results are not really verified.
Many of those demo files produce plots, which does not work in the
absence of a graphics system. I got around this by redefining the
figure() function in check.m, which is a suboptimal solution. I am
wondering whether it is appropriate to change octave-pkg.mk such that the
tests would be run under xvfb-run. Do you think it is a good idea?
