[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #38106 (project octave):

>I still don't understand what part you think is buggy.

I am not sure myself. Perhaps detailing the sequence will help. 
The debian package liboctave-dev_3.6.2-2.amd64.deb does not contain
oct-types.h I have installed that and database_1.0.4

As far as I can tell, something has gone wrong - see config.log
at configure:3152 and configure:3174

As it says, configure can't find oct-types.h 
and i can't find conftest.cc
My best guess is that Debian should have continued to package 
oct-types in their liboctave-dev package. It was included in
liboctave-dev_3.2.4
