[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #55283] [octave-forge](linear-algebra) build fails: "config.h" not found

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #55283 (project octave):

A little OT:
With Octave-6.0.0, several OF packages with binary modules won't
(cross-)compile anymore due to deprecation of e.g., is_numeric_type (replaced
by isnumeric) and such, and namespace changes (like feval => octave::feval). I
could adapt the affected OF packages except communications, sparsersb and
odepkg, and OF-windows can't be built due to an apparent syntax issue that
octave-5.0.0 didn't complain about.
I didn't prepare csets yet (a lot of work that I think lies with the pertinent
package maintainers), just adapted the code to get the packages built.

What should I do here? open a bug report for ever single "failing" OF package,
or just one bug report for all of them (as there are several common causes)?
Whatever, maybe I'd better wait until after Octave-5.x.x is released. Or am I
wrong there?
