I thought the information below might be interesting. Some user statistics of which Octave packages get installed the most on Debian. Most, but not all, are Octave-Forge packages. It's interesting how frequently QtOctave is also installed. About one in 3 Octave installations in Debian also seem to install QtOctave.

It was produced by this (quite convoluted) one-line shell code: curl http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pkg-octave-devel%40lists.alioth.debian.org \ | perl -ne 'if (/<a name="([^"]+)">/) {print $1} if (m{<a href="popcon.php\?package=[^"]+">(\d+)</a>}) {print (" $1\n")}' \ | perl -ne 'if (/(.*) (\d+)/) {print ("$2 $1\n")}' \ | sort -nr This will help us to know on which packages we should concentrate our efforts for the 3.6 transition.
