Bug#903105: nlopt: FTBFS with to octave 4.4.0

[Andreas Tille]

Package: nlopt
Severity: serious
Justification: FTBFS

Hi,

when I team uploaded nlopt on Tue, 29 May 2018 it was building fine.  At 2018-06-09
octave 4.4.0-3 was uploaded to unstable.  When I build today the build fails with

...
/build/nlopt-2.4.2+dfsg/octave/nlopt_optimize-oct.cc:82:36: error: 'class octave_function' has no member named 'do_multi_index_op'; did you mean 'do_index_op'?
   octave_value_list res = data->f->do_multi_index_op(gradient ? 2 : 1, args);
                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                                    do_index_op
...

I wonder whether there is some upgrade path for this API change in octave.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
