It can be listed again at OF as soon as a working release emerges
there. But since it's an external package, we can't do much at OF to
push for a release, even though John D. recently provided a patch to
fix building with Octave 4.2.

I don't know which specific solver you need, but maybe there are some
in Octave core you can use; the basic solvers previously in odepkg
should now be in Octave core, thanks to Carlo, under scripts/ode/
(maybe with changed names), and there is lsode, too.
