I think these are a harmless confusion of mex-the-Metafont-format with mex-the-Octave-plugin-format.
You can ignore them.
It would be nice if rebase were smart enough to look for *.mex and *.oct only in known Octave directories, but it isnât my itch, so Iâm not going to be doing anything about it.

I got similar errors in my testing, though with different libraries. I reinstalled those library packages and the errors went away.
The only complaints I still see are about a 32-bit libstdc++ for cross-compiling on this 64-bit system, which is harmless.

Because BLODA? I donât see that youâve reported going through the BLODA list and ruling out all the possibilities there:

As for the 32-bit issue, that may be part of the problem. 64-bit greatly reduces the problems that rebase tries to cure, simply because itâs much harder to have a collision in such a large address space.

Your inability to filter 50 messages a day to a junk folder or use Gmane does not constitute a requirement that we send email directly to you.
Gmail even has a feature for this, sending mailing list traffic off to the Forums tab by default, so you donât even have to go see it if you donât want to.
