Ubuntu isn't really that bad (except if you happen to be running
pre-9.10 ubuntu and want to use octave-3.2+ -- but that would probably
be just as painful if you were running Debian etch) and there are
plenty of ubuntu users subscribed to address@hidden In any case, if
you run into a problem with octave it's very likely you're going to be
building development sources to get the fixes, anyway. That's pretty
painless on Ubuntu and debian at the moment.
