That'll do it. For now, I'd recommend avoiding the dpo/openblas tap and
just using the stuff in octave-app/octave-app-bases. octave-app-bases
also provides SUNDIALS 2.7, but its formulae are defined such that they
avoid conflicting with the stuff from core Homebrew.

If you really want to do OpenBLAS based builds, use
octave-app/octave-app-blas. It's my fork of dpo/openblas, but with stuff
renamed and rearranged to also avoid conflicts with core Homebrew.

Cheers,
Andrew
