[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #38928] configure -> hdf5 doesn't handle path through

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #20, bug #38928 (project octave):

I started working on a fix for this problem.  Handling the possibility of
various locations for hdf5.h is not hard but I'm not sure what to do about the
location of the library.  Presumably it should match the header file that is
chosen, but I'm not sure how to do that in a reliable way.

Again, I'm curious to know why this change was made on Debian systems without
providing some alternatives-style mechanism to provide a system-wide default
that just works.
