In my Debian system (amd64 architecture, unstable distribution), the
communications package fails to build from source due to the absence of the
hdf5.pc file:


$ debuild
[…]
checking for hdf5... no
checking for H5Fopen in -lhdf5... no
configure: error: hdf5 not found


In Debian, the available pkgconfig files for HDF5 are the following:

$ apt-file find pkgconfig/hdf5
libhdf5-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/hdf5-serial.pc
libhdf5-mpich-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/hdf5-mpich.pc
libhdf5-openmpi-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/hdf5-openmpi.pc

I am applying the patch attached to this bug report to the Debian package
octave-communications. I am not sure that it will be useful for other
systems.
