#38762: octave @3.2.4, Revision 11 (math, science) Error: Failed to install poppler ------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: precioso.p.gabrillo@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: octave | ------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by egall@…): This is actually an issue with poppler, not octave. The relevant part of the log is: {{{ :info:configure checking for LIBCURL... no :info:configure configure: error: in `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_poppler/poppler/work/poppler-0.22.2': :info:configure configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old. Make sure it :info:configure is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full :info:configure path to pkg-config. :info:configure :info:configure Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBCURL_CFLAGS :info:configure and LIBCURL_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. :info:configure See the pkg-config man page for more details. :info:configure :info:configure To get pkg-config, see <http://pkg- config.freedesktop.org/>. :info:configure See `config.log' for more details :info:configure Command failed: cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_poppler/poppler/work/poppler-0.22.2" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --disable-introspection --disable- poppler-qt4 --disable-gtk-test --disable-silent-rules --enable-xpdf- headers --enable-zlib --enable-libcurl --enable-poppler-glib --mandir=/opt/local/share/man --x-includes=/opt/local/include --x-libraries=/opt/local/lib }}} What does `port installed curl` return for you? How about `port installed pkgconfig`? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38762#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
