[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41298] pkg install: automatically extract %!tests and install both extracted and fixed test files

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #41298 (project octave):

Getting the "*tst" files into a separate test/ subdir is going to be a messy
affair, see L.100-118 in (patched) scripts/pkg/private/configure_make.m.
Of course it can be done but the code isn't going to be pretty.

Alternatively another rule + copy "if" block + subfunction to isolate *tst
files can be made in scripts/pkg/private/install.m (L.426 and up).

Just dumping all *tst files into the m-file subdir (arch-independent) is the
easiest ATM.
