How to read HDF data using octave 3.2.4 ?

load -hdf5 file.hd5

Having said that, on my Fedora 14 system this results in

  Warning! ***HDF5 library version mismatched error***
  ...
  Headers are 1.8.4, library is 1.8.5
  ...
  Aborted (core dumped)

because Octave was compiled against HDF5 v.1.8.4 and in the meantime HDF was updated because the dependency in the package is specificed loosely. The abort is actually a preventive measure of the incompatibility testing code in Octave; it's possible to disable the warning by controlling Octave with an environment variable mentioned in the warning:

HDF5_DISABLE_VERSION_CHECK=1 octave

This allows Octave to proceed with the I/O and does read my test file.

Perhaps either the testing code should not be so stringent or the package %spec should require a specific version of HDF5 libs.
