[Pkg-octave-devel] Size of the octave-forge packages

[Thomas Weber]

I'm currently reading through the control files and frankly, I have some
doubts with several packages:

I take special-matrices as an example: 
This package ships 1(!) .m file, consisting of 7(!) lines[1] of code
(ignoring comments). The corresponding debian/control file has 18 lines,
about half of which are compulsive.

If ftp-masters reject this, I can't really blame them. 

[1] Of these 7 lines, 3 are argument checking ...
