I have been running Octave 5.1/recently  5.2 from ppa 
https://launchpad.net/~gapost/+archive/ubuntu/octave?field.series_filter=bionic 
on 18.04. Works fine as a regular deb package.

The flatpack package did not allow me to forge install octave packages 
which required additional libraries (i.e. database, zeromq, etc.)
