octave needs a rev bump to link against new hdf5-18

[MacPorts@…]

This is the second time in the past week or so that I've had a port fail to run because it wanted an earlier version of some .dylib than the one installed. Isn't there some easy way to require and then use any version equal to or LATER than some specific version?

Here is my detailed report:

> sudo port selfupdate; sudo port upgrade outdated
Password:
--->  Updating the ports tree

--->  MacPorts base is already the latest version

The ports tree has been updated. To upgrade your installed ports, you should run

Please remember to cc the maintainer.

This is probably the case for other hdf5-18 dependents too?

[mamoll (Mark Moll)]

Yes, I bumped the revision number for other ports dependent on hdf5-18 for which I am a maintainer or which are marked openmaintainer. Not sure if I should do the same for octave and other ports.
