I plan to build using a script that closely follows the Fink info file, and
check that the cs-list problem is absent.
Once that works, I'll modify the octave343.info file and build and install with
that.
At that point, I'll be able to try to install a package.
My builds are slow (> 1hr) and can only try in my spare time. I expect my
progress will be slow.
