OCS development is continuing outside octave-forge.
There are currently different forks that have all diverged (by different amounts) from the forge version.
It is planned to make a new release at some point, but that will
require some work to merge the different forks so it might take a long time.

This bug does not apply to any of the current forks so I'd say it is OK to close.

noting that ocs hasn't been updated since 2015, and it can't be installed without odepkg, and that's no longer available on Octave Forge (and according to https://wiki.octave.org/Odepkg will not compile/install) ... is it worth keeping this bug open?

Still occurs in ocs 0.1.5, octave 4.0.1-rc1.
Renaming summary as is not MinGW specific

Installing in Windows using the -local option stops the warnings.

This is not only a Windows issue, but happens in Linux if the package is installed with the -global option (which is where the windows packages get installed by default)

It is expected the .m files to be in the same path as the PKG_ADD/DEL files.

Relative addressing of package with ../ fails on Windows because package library is located elsewhere (C:\Software\...) than main Octave distribution (C:\Program Files).
