octave port group: Use cli for installs

Reported by: Schamschula (Marius Schamschula) Owned by: MarcusCalhoun-Lopez (Marcus Calhoun-Lopez)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.3.4
Keywords: Cc:
Port: octave

Description

For octave versions 4.0.0 and above the octave port group installs packages using the octave command, which launches the octave GUI. Although functional, this can be distracting as the computer jumps focus away from the terminal session (in my case switching between virtual desktops).

Use the octave-cli command instead.

so take this opportunity to fix some longstanding issues.
