I observed the same thing.  Octave-forge is installing its various modules
one by one, but with each module it judges its package database to be corrupt,
so it reinstalls every module again, leading to O(n²) runtime.  I do not know
what the reason for this is.

The reason why you see this only now is that I have recently pushed a patch
to fix math/octave on armv7; previously it didn't build.

Yours,
Robert Clausecker
