The version number in the DESCRIPTION file must be a three field string
of the form NN.NN.NN or N.N.N, etc. The financial package has a version
number of .1, which is the cause of the issue. The fix is to modify the
DESCRIPTION file and re upload this package and the bundle. However, the
bad version number in the DESCRIPTION file also means the this package
failed to get listed at

http://octave.sourceforge.net/packages.html

but I don't think that should be fixed in for this release.. It'll be
fixed in two months at the next release..
