Update of bug #42352 (project octave):

                Priority:              5 - Normal => 3 - Low

Follow-up Comment #10:

A trivial workaround for those affected by this bug is either to run octave
with the --texi-macros-file pointing to any existing file, e.g.


octave --texi-macros-file=/dev/null


or to set the path to the file within Octave


>> texi_macros_file ("/dev/null");
>> pkg install ...


or to create an empty file at the built-in path that Octave is expecting to
find as suggested in the previous comment.
