#25527: Snow Leopard: Can't install ncurses ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: daledouglas@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: Snow Leopard ncurses | Port: ncurses ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Comment(by daledouglas@…): Upgrade ncurses? You mean: sudo port upgrade ncurses? I did that (no response from port), and then tried to reinstall octave, and got the same error. Replying to [comment:1 gnwiii@…]:
Replying to [ticket:25527 daledouglas@…]:
$ sudo port install octave ---> Computing dependencies for gettext ---> Configuring gettext Error: You cannot install gettext for the architecture(s) x86_64 because Error: its dependency ncurses only contains the architecture(s) i386.
I just now built octave for SL. ncurses and gettest were already installed and /opt/local/lib/libncurses.dylib is x86_64. Did you try rebuilding ncurses? The news is not all good: imread give "Assertion failed" and "plot 0:10" gives "error:plot no data to plot". I am however pleased to report that 2+2 gives ans = 4.
