At first I couldn't replicate this. The problem is that you don't have
any package installed and 'pkg ("describe", "all")' is returning nothing
instead of an empty cell array. I guess this should be fixed in pkg instead.
Actually, I'd arguee that it should be fixed so that it returns a
struct array, rather than a cell array of scalar structs but I'm
afraid that may break old code.
