For you for reporting and the fix.

Thanks for that example, I plan to add the same feature to the communications package.

I'm adding the maintainer of the octcdf package to the package.

If backwards compatibility is of interest here, the same approach as the one being taken by the sockets package may be useful, i.e., PKG_ADD and PKG_DEL is done the following way:

The 3-argument form of autoload is now released with Octave 3.8.0, so octcdf can provide a PKG_DEL script that does the inverse autoload function for unloading the package.

That's because those functions are added with autoload which did not had a reverse function. See http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/reverse-of-autoload-td1635126.html

This inverse is autoload with a 3rd argument "remove" which was has already been implemented

https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7888

But not yet released.

When doing

octave still knows about 'ncdim', although octcdf has actually been removed from the path.
