I used the debian maintainers site[https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-octave-team/octave/blob/master/debian/control] to get the debian packages that can be installed using apt. So after installing all the dependencies, I used the following code:

Which version of SuiteSparse do you use?

Might be related to https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55937
IIUC, SUNLINSOL_KLU should be working out of the box with SuiteSparse 4.1 (and newer?).
