octave-pfstools supplies binaries that compiled for octave 6.2, but 6.4 is shipped with jammy

I suggest that you create a bug report. Target for the bug probably has to be psftools, but adding a task for octave could also be a reasonable idea.

"The source files are not included, so I can't recompile the oct file."

That is not true.
see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pfstools/2.2.0-2

I found the source on sourceforge. but couldn't compile them using mkoctfiles command from octave. Could be my bad...

I'll check if I can compile the pfstools package linking to the newer octave...

However, until now the octave-pfstools package was working out of the box after installing with apt.

Thanks!

I suggest that you try compiling locally with the Ubuntu-provided tools.

Activate the source repositories for apt (deb-src in /etc/apt/sources.list)
and run the commands
mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential
sudo apt build-dep psftools
apt source --compile psftools
