Right, so version 4.3 isn't coming from the packaging system which lists version 5.2.  The most likely way you would have this in /usr/local is if you self-compiled code, but even then I'm not sure how you would get version 4.3 sources.  My advice would be to delete the 4.3 version entirely.  If you want to compile from source use the code for the 6.0.92 release candidate (available from GNU ftp site) or use the development code directly from the Mercurial repository.

Something is wrong here.  How could you get a version 4.3 of Octave from apt-get?  The numbering 4.3.0+ is a development version that you could only obtain if you downloaded and built code from source.

This looks like an Ubuntu packaging error, not a bug in Octave.  Installing the Ubuntu package for Octave with apt-get should have also installed the proper dependency packages.

I installed octave with apt-get on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

When I try to launch octave, I get this error:
octave-cli-4.3.0+: error while loading shared libraries: libhdf5.so.7

I downloaded, built and install hdf5, but it built

Any ideas?
