So, before pulling your cset, I did make clean and configured with

./configure --with-hdf5-includedir=/usr/include/hdf5/serial
--with-hdf5-libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/hdf5/serial

This made the warning go away. Octave also successfully builds. I'm not
sure if I made a mistake when I did this before (probably). I have
attached the config log from this in spec-dir-config.log.

This is what you are expected to do on a Debian (or Ubuntu) system.

I then ran make clean again and plain ./configure. I attach the config
log from this in plain-config.log

here's the contents of /usr/include/hdf5/serial

It's not expected that the compiler will find header files and libraries in non-standard locations unless you tell it where to look.

We've previously discussed modifying the configure script to look in the directories where Debian installs these files but decided against it. You can read the discussion here:

Start with my comment #19.
