This approach doesn't work. We had Octave in Debian seg-faulting at
startup on some architecturves for *years*. As nobody was using the
software at all on these architectures, no bug about this was *ever*
reported.

Move the package into an archive and if someone complains, move it back.
The other way does not work at all.
