Not officially in Debian. TTBOMK, it is not available unofficially,
neither.

It should not be hard, although we would also need backports of glpk-shlib
and ufsparse, at least. This is a nice project for someone with free time

Otherwise, just wait until the release of etch, scheduled for December (this
year, hopefully :-).

Okay, I set the M-F-T header to pkg-octave-devel. Please, respect it, since
this discussion is not central to help-octave.
