[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54260] mkoctfile doesn't export some Octave features that packages need at build time

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #54260 (project octave):

I definitely agree about making it clear which variables can be overridden
from the environment, but we can still do all of that in mkoctfile, and just
document that certain variables are intended to be defaults with an override
available and others are not.

I would rather look at adding things to mkoctfile first, then we can look at
which things can be removed. I will have to do a wider search to see if any
other external projects are using FFTW3_LIBS.

I just did a quick search and found that a project called shogun definitely
does use 'octave-config -p BINDIR' for example.
