Debian packages were uploaded last night for i386. The autobuilders have
already created ia64, alpha, sparc, hppa, s390 and powerpc versions. The
packages should propagate the usual way via Debian's "unstable" flavour.

Note that a small patch is need to correct a type in Makeconf.in:

--- octave2.1-2.1.51.orig/Makeconf.in
+++ octave2.1-2.1.51/Makeconf.in
