#39509: atlas @3.10.1 (math) octave @3.2.4 install fails by hanging indefinitely ---------------------------------+--------------------- Reporter: sathyanarayana.a@… | Owner: vince@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: atlas | ---------------------------------+--------------------- Comment (by talksense101@…): Atlas is still a problem with Port version 2.3.1 and Octave 3.8.1. I cancelled the build after 7 hours on a Macbook Pro (2.3GHz i7 with 8GB memory). The build log was stuck on step 2.4.5. I rebuilt with +accelerate so that I can get Octave, but the warning messages aren't very inspiring. ----- WARNING: Dependency 'arpack' is installed with the +accelerate variant, using Apple's Vector Libraries which have some known bugs that can cause Octave to crash if using certain functions in arpack. The +atlas variant does not have these issues with Octave, but does take many hours to compile even on modern hardware. WARNING: The +accelerate variant has been selected, using Apple's Vector Libraries which have some known bugs that can cause Octave to crash. The +atlas variant does not have these issues with Octave, but does take many hours to compile even on modern hardware. ------- -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39509#comment:17> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
