For the Debian packages we (the DOG, see http://pkg-octave.alioth.debian.org)
are using now the following:
octave-config -p LOCALAPIOCTFILEDIR
It gives you an api-versioned directory, instead of a release-versioned one:
/usr/lib/octave/site/oct/api-v13/i386-pc-linux-gnu
The advantage is that the add-on packages do not need to be recompiled if
a new version of octave is installed. Besides, the api-versioned
directory insures the API compatibility, which is what matters for *.oct
after all.
