for what I can see mechanics in not changed but octave is now
 not able to manage "linear-algebra" dependency

---- this works ---
nm =

  scalar structure containing the fields:

    name = octave
    op = >=
    ver = 3.4.0


--- this not ---
nm =

  scalar structure containing the fields:

    name =
    {
      [1,1] = linear
      [1,2] = algebra
    }
    op =
    {
      [1,1] =
      [1,2] = >=
    }
    ver =
    {
      [1,1] =
      [1,2] = 2.0.0
    }
