Although it builds fine it installs something without the
documentations.

First: when starting up I got this warning: docstring file
'/usr/local/octave/share/octave/3.7.7+/etc/built-in-docstrings' not
found

`help sin' prints:

error: unable to open /usr/local/octave/share/octave/3.7.7+/etc/macros.texi for 
reading
error: called from:
error:   /usr/local/octave/share/octave/3.7.7+/m/help/__makeinfo__.m at line 
103, column 5
error:   /usr/local/octave/share/octave/3.7.7+/m/help/help.m at line 99, column 
22

I went into .build/doc and make all:

Making all in doxyhtml

make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/shared/sources/c/octave/.build/doc/doxyhtml'

Constantly disappointed by the fragile build process,
