Hi, I am new to Macports (but I have some Unix/Darwin experience and I have used Fink before). I am trying to install Octave on Leopard and not having much luck. The following is an error I got on my first attempt. Can anybody decipher this and tell me how to make it work? thanks, -Jax Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_lang_gcc40/work/build" && make profiledbootstrap -j 2 " returned error 2 Command output: gcc -c -g
