I use apt to install things. Much simpler. Or use synaptic
package manager on Linux (it is a GUI thing). Start it up,
search for odepkg in the search option. Select the package,
click Apply.

that is all.

or use the command line

sudo apt-get install octave-odepkg

Then start octave, and the ode45 numerical solvers
will be now installed.  type 'ver' in octave to see it:
