Compiling current hg tip 25294:01ad54f997f5 fails with


/usr/bin/x86_64-linux-gnu-ld: cannot find -lsuitesparseconfig
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:13275: recipe for target 'liboctave/liboctave.la' failed
make[2]: *** [liboctave/liboctave.la] Error 1
[..]
Makefile:10172: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2


This is a minor problem and trivial to fix (installing package
libsuitesparse-dev in Debian GNU/Linux for example), but it may be nice to
catch this at bootstrapping time.
