Umm, you shouldn’t see be seeing anything referencing octave-3.8.2-1 for 
octave364 packages.  If that’s indeed correct, let me know the specific 
packages which are doing the wrong thing.

I’m not 100% sure whether Octave-3.8.2 really requires Java 1.6 or not; I 
haven’t had time yet to confirm this on a fresh Yosemite.  There’s still an 
Apple-approved Java 1.6 which works on Yosemite, though —  "Java for OS X 
2014-001” from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572.  

No supported platform has an unstable tree anymore.
