Thanks, your patch works on Debian for me, at least for the build/install.
However, I am stiil having a problem at run time:

    octave:1> test fixedpoint
    error: can't perform indexing operations for <unknown type> type
    octave:32 which fixed
    fixed is the dynamically-linked function from the file
    /usr/lib/octave/packages/fixed-0.7.5/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-api-v32/fixed.oct

It only works after I run:

    octave:3> source 
("/usr/lib/octave/packages/fixed-0.7.5/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-api-v32/PKG_ADD")

Is that normal?

BTW, there was another question I asked about PKG_ADD that went unanswered.
I am repeating it below, thanks,
