It seems that I have missed adding the readme.txt to my second archive
(Octave3.4.2_gcc4.5.2_pkgs.7z).

Tatsuro, can you please add the following text to your wiki, regarding the
installation of Octave3.4.2_gcc4.5.2_pkgs.7z:

Installation:
Unzip to the same directory structure to which Octave3.4.2_gcc4.5.2.7z was
unzipped.
In order to update octave_packages database and auto-load most packages
(excluding 'ad' and 'windows' which may crash octave when loaded and 'clear
all' is executed), launch Octave and execute:
    pkg rebuild -auto
    pkg rebuild -noauto ad windows
You can adjust your installed packages status per your specific neads and
usage by excuting one of the following commands:
a. To interactively load or unload a package
    pkg load <pkg_name>
   or
    pkg unload <pkg_name>
b. To disable auto-load for specific pkg <pkg_name>
    pkg rebuild -noauto <pkg_name>
c. To enable auto-load for specific pkg <pkg_name>
    pkg rebuild -auto <pkg_name>
d. To completely uninstall a package
    pkg uninstall <pkg_name>
