Thanks for your feedback. For Octave there are two options: either leave it as it is, but then the Octave transition becomes dependent on Sundials (i.e. Octave 4.4 will migrate to testing only when Sundials 3.1 does, and in particular this means that sundials build failures must be fixed soon); or I can simply temporarily remove the (build-)dependency of Octave on Sundials. Note that I could actually do the latter, because it turns out that Octave 4.4 is not (yet) compatible with Sundials 3.1. So no rush on your side anyways.
