- Update to version 9.2.0:
  * Improvements and fixes:
    - hist.m: Add input validation for Y restricting it to 2-D
      array (bug #65478). Avoid error when Y value range is very
      small (bug #65714).
    - cross.m: Add input validation for dim restricting it to a
      numeric integer valued scalar (bug #65544, bug #65527).
    - getframe.m: Respect pixel ratio (high DPI) of screen with
      figure (bug #65540).
    - legend.m: Fix error if root property "showhiddenhandles" is
      "on" (bug #65442)
    - savepath.m: Correctly handle packages without binaries (bug
      #65559).
    - Correctly scale figure position on screen with DPI scaling
      (high DPI).
    - profile ('on') now clears any existing profile data as the
      documentation states (bug #65595).
    - Fix segmentation fault when trying to set breakpoint in
      non-existent method of classdef class (bug #65610).
    - Improve default display of classdef properties (bug #62432).
    - Avoid crash with Qt6 6.7.0 (bug #65605).
    - bar.m: Catch input number validation error.
    - Prevent OOM crash or segmentation fault in sort () when dim
      equals Inf (bug #65712).
    - legend.m: Avoid setting more colors than coordinates for
      patch objects (bug #65632).
    - inputParser.m: Allow default classdef objects which overload
      struct (bug #65667).
    - Preserve "position" property of figure when object is
      reset() (bug #65750).
    - hist.m: Avoid error when y value range is very small (bug
      #65714).
    - barh: Add input validation check for nargin < 1.
  * GUI:
    - Use first word for options in right-click menu of command
      window widget (bug #65518).
    - Set DontUseNativeDialog flag as first property in
      QFileDialog.
    - Explicitly raise non-modal message boxes ensuring
      visibility.
    - Save and restore splitter state of documentation widget.
    - Allow executing new files from built-in editor with F5 (bug
      #65548).
    - Allow unbinding GUI shortcuts (bug #65580).
    - Fix restoring headers in file browser and workspace view
      (bug #65030).
    - File dialogs of the built-in editor are now modal.
    - Fix dragging editor from main window into floating state
      (bug #65725).
  * Build system / Tests:
    - Avoid overriding save_* variables from outer scope (bug
      #65476). This fixes an error that might have lead to
      overlinking of shared libraries (e.g., .oct files). Consider
      rebuilding shared libraries that have been built with Octave
      9.1.0.
    - Add BIST for is_valid_file_id.m (bug #65543).
    - Update metainfo.xml with new fields for AppStream 1.0 (bug
      #65355).
    - Show result of check for std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator in
      configure summary.
    - Run test program for polymorphic allocators if possible
      instead of a simple build check.
    - Speed up BIST for the central part of convn with 'full'
      shape.
    - Require Qt Widgets module when building the GUI (bug
      #65625).
    - bug-53027.tst: Delete temporary file after test is done (bug
      #53027).
    - Avoid build error with GCC 14 when targeting Windows.
    - Try to clean up after BIST also in case test failed (bug
      #53027).
    - bar.m, barh.m: Add plotting BISTs (bug #65671).
    - Check if C and Fortran compilers accept -fexceptions flag
      (bug #65767). This affects building Octave itself from
      sources and also how .mex or .oct files are built by mex and
      mkoctfile.
  * Documentation updates.
- Changes from version 9.1.0:
  * Long list, see <https://octave.org/NEWS-9.html>
- Switch to Qt6 library for GUI.
- Tests: Need to pass `RUN_OCTAVE_OPTIONS="--no-gui-libs"` as a
  temporary work around to
  <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?65866>
- Add BuildRequires: gnuplot when building without
  `native_graphics`; it is needed for tests.
