Description:
Since the last update (4.4.1-3 to 4.4.1-4) the build lacks the standard gui.

Additional info:
* octave-4.4.1-4

Steps to reproduce:
run:
$ octave --gui
output:
octave: GUI features missing or disabled in this build

Workaround:
I build octave myself from source:
During the configuration 'qcollectiongenerator-qt5' cannot be found (seems to be missing in the qt5-tools package).
It is sufficient to create a link to 'qcollectiongenerator-qt4':
# ln -s /usr/bin/qcollectiongenerator-qt4 /usr/bin/qcollectiongenerator-qt5
and run the configuration again. Afterwards one can run the build and get a working version including the standard gui.
This task depends upon
