Package: mrtrix Version: 0.2.10-1 Severity: important Tags: patch The current version of mrtrix in sid build-depends on octave3.2-headers. This later package will be removed from unstable once the transition to the new version of octave (currently 3.6.1) will be completed (see the wiki page of the DOG [1]).
The mtrtix package needs octave3.2-headers only for including the makefile fragment defs.make. This file has been dropped in the Debian packaging of Octave 3.6.1. Just using the octave-config script is the recommended way of going now. For that it is necessary to build-depend on liboctave-dev. I am attaching below a patch for fixing the issue in this bug report. The patch was obtained through debdiff. I added the corresponding entries to debian/changelog. Note also that I added "Suggests: octave" to the binary mrtrix package, a change that you may reconsider.
