As for Octave Forge packages, I don't think that all of them
are provided for Windows.


Building Octave on Linux is not so easy because of the lot of dependencies.

In Windows, I got Octave + 44 packages without any effort, while on Linux I
spent hours to configure and compile Octave 4.2.1 and 12 packages...


I track head.
One time per week, I update sources and compile/install. Takes a couple minutes. 

Then, I use pkg update.  Also takes a couple minutes...
