Answering for the two groups/persons below; Octave only uses 'interests' triggers. > Debian Octave Group <[email protected]> > octave3.2 > Thomas Weber <[email protected]> > octave3.2 (U) Producers of our triggers are packages that drop their files in one of Octave's paths. In order to know about these files, Octave keeps a cache which must be updated upon installation -- without it, Octave will not look for these files. So, sorry, but unless the trigger is run, these packages cannot be taken as 'configured' -- the Octave interpreter will not know about them.
