I was afraid that was probably the line. So what is happening is that
an individual package from octave-forge is causing the problem, but
it's not obvious which one it is because the output is suppressed
(from the "octave -q" command).
One thing you could do is edit this script and remove the "-q"
argument for octave on line 7, so you get all of the output. You can
then try to run the script manually:
sudo ./var/tmp/tmp.2.YhppeF
