Title:
  Sync octave 3.6.2-5 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

Status in “octave” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Please sync octave 3.6.2-5 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

  Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:

  This update allows coinstallation of any libhdf5-dev variant with the
  liboctave-dev package and patches mkoctfile to work with any of them.
  This will allow users to install, for example, gmsh and liboctave-dev
  without conflicts. See discussion thread
  http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-octave-devel/2012-August/009582.html.

  As you can see in the debdiff, the changes are only to the control file
  and the mkoctfile shell script. The package is still built against
  libhdf5-dev, no changes have been made to compilation rules or binary
  compatibility.

  Changelog entries since current quantal version 3.6.2-4:

  octave (3.6.2-5) unstable; urgency=low

    * Make liboctave-dev coinstallable again with all HDF5 variants
      + Now depends on libhdf5-dev | libhdf5-openmpi-dev | libhdf5-mpich2-dev
      + mkoctfile-mpi.diff: patch reintroduced back; includes MPI headers when
        compiling with mkoctfile (see #598227)
