There is a new pull request by tornaria against master on the void-packages repository https://github.com/tornaria/void-packages SuiteSparse https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/44804 SuiteSparse: update to 7.1.0. #### Testing the changes - I tested the changes in this PR: **briefly** octave seems to work ok with this, even the testsuite passes. However, due to a (minor) change in `cs_complex_t` octave ftbfs which is fixed by the patch in the second commit. Rebuild of octave is not necessary IMO. A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/44804.patch is attached
