A problem with the graceplot package has been recently reported [1] in
Debian, which is caused by various graphic functions in Octave 3.0.1 not
working with the Grace interface.
We fixed this problem in the Debian by using a template function [2] to
generate all missing functions listed in a file [3] through the following
code in debian/rules [4]:
for f in $(shell cat debian/missing.lst) ; do \
sed s/@FUN@/$$f/ < debian/template.m \
> $(INSTDIR)/$$f.m ; \
done
I think this might be of interest to the package maintainers at SourceForge.

Also, there was another minor problem in the package: the file
inst/*-api-*/__grcmd__.oct is not removed by "make clean".
