How to install the latest version of octave in ubuntu 14.04

sudo apt-get build-dep octave is not working. The error message is "E: Build-Depends dependency for octave cannot be satisfied because the package automake cannot be found". I have modified the /etc/apt/sources.list file with deb replaced by deb-src. Even when I try sudo apt-get install octave, an error is displayed that the package is not located.

Octave packages http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Debian_systems Many Octave packages are also distributed by your Linux distribution. These are tested to work the best with your Octave version. For example:

sudo apt-get install octave-control octave-image octave-io octave-optim octave-signal octave-statistics

Octave's Personal Package Archive (PPA) for Ubuntu

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:octave/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install octave

Or 

sudo apt-get autoclean

You can also Try with 

wget ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave/octave-4.0.0.tar.bz2
tar -xvf octave-4.0.0.tar.bz2
cd octave-4.0.0
./configure
make
sudo make install

More version are available at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave

Or

Adding a line to your /etc/apt/sources.list
