Public bug reported:

After upgrading from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04, all the upgrades happened
except for gmsh. It was not upgraded from version 2.5.0.dfsg-2 to
2.5.1~beta2~svn10.

Both Ubuntu Software Center and Synaptic are unable to upgrade this
package automatically.

In synaptic, the package is listed as needing an upgrade, having a "!"
symbol next to it, but clicking Mark All Upgrades fails to select gmsh
for automatic upgrading.

If I manually select gmsh in synaptic, and try to upgrade, the
additional required changes are

 To be removed:
     libhdf5-serial-1.8.4
     libhdf5-serial-dev
     octave-msh

 To be installed:
     lam-runtime
     lam4-dev
     libhdf5-lam-1.8.4
     libhdf5-lam-dev
     liblam4

However, I use octave-msh. It's useful. I don't want it uninstalled.

Is there a packaging issue in gmsh?
