See this bug: http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13686 See also this uncommitted update to 2.9.17: http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13332 Actually, Octave 3.0 has been released in the mean time so maybe someone could try updating the port to 3.0 to see if it works, and if so, attach a patch to the 2.9.17 ticket.

Hi guys,
I tried to compile octave but it failed. I tried cleaning it and compiling again and it failed with the same error. Is this a bug? It seems that it tried to make the tests when it failed but I'm not sure. This is what I had in the terminal:
---> Fetching octave ---> Verifying checksum(s) for octave ---> Extracting octave ---> Applying patches to octave ---> Configuring octave ---> Building octave with target all Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/ local/var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_math_ octave/work/octave-2.9.15" && make all " returned error 2 Command output: make -C testfun all making PKG_ADD ls: *.cc: No such file or directory make -C time all making PKG_ADD ls: *.cc: No such file or directory /opt/local/bin/g++-mp-4.2 -O2 -o gethelp gethelp.cc -L/opt/local/lib ./mkdoc . > DOCSTRINGS.t mv DOCSTRINGS.t DOCSTRINGS make -C doc all making conf.texi from conf.texi.in make -C faq all makeinfo --html --ifinfo --no-split --output=Octave-FAQ.html -I.. - I. -I./..

Can this be fixed? Thank you all,
