Package: octave-control
Version: 2.8.3-1+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,
I installed Debian stretch a few days ago, switching from jessie.
On jessie I used octave without any problem. Now I'm having this error:

octave:1> pkg load control
octave:2> ss
error: __ss_dim__:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/octave/packages/control-2.8.3/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-api-v50+/is_real_matrix.oct:
failed to load:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/octave/packages/control-2.8.3/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-api-v50+/is_real_matrix.oct:
undefined symbol:
_ZNK5ArrayINSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEEE17resize_fill_valueEv
error: called from
    __ss_dim__ at line 30 column 3
        ss at line 196 column 10

As it seems to search for a c++11 symbol, I suspect some libraries got
compiled with different ABIs. When trying the upstream control package,
it doesn't compile too and fails upon installing it.
