I have been using octave on Ubuntu for a while, and for particular reasons I

I'm not sure what exact problem you ran into here, because both octave

If it's not too much trouble, can you be more specific about what
problems you had trying to use mkoctfile installed with Flatpak? And if
you prefer, you can always use the issue tracker:
