Hi, I'm having trouble installing octave. I keep getting the following error message: stephen-dones-computer:~ srdone$ sudo port install octave ---> Configuring gmp Error: Target com.apple.configure returned: can't read "configure.cflags": no such variable Error: The following dependencies failed to build: gcc42 gmp libiconv mpfr glpk gnuplot expat fontconfig freetype zlib gd2 jpeg libpng ncurses ncursesw pdflib readline teTeX gawk gettext ghostscript gsed texi2html texinfo hdf5 pcre Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. Any suggestions? Thanks, -- Stephen R. Done Economics Department, NH 2053 University of California, Santa Barbara (805) 275-1805 -- econ.ucsb.edu/~done

configure.cflags is new... Are you running MacPorts 1.4.3? If not, please "sudo port selfupdate" to get it, then try again.

I'm still having trouble - it appears that port was not outdated. Here's the text of what I did: stephen-dones-computer:~ srdone$ sudo port selfupdate Password: DarwinPorts base version 1.430 installed Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.430 The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated selfupdate done! stephen-dones-computer:~ srdone$ sudo port install octave ---> Configuring gmp Error: Target com.apple.configure returned: can't read "configure.cflags": no such variable Error: The following dependencies failed to build: gcc42 gmp libiconv mpfr glpk gnuplot expat fontconfig freetype zlib gd2 jpeg libpng ncurses ncursesw pdflib readline teTeX gawk gettext ghostscript gsed texi2html texinfo hdf5 pcre Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. stephen-dones-computer:~ srdone$ Thanks, -- Stephen R.

Oops. Sent to the list with non-subscribed address. Resending minus the cc's. -------------- Wait a minute. I'm getting the same error. Apparently, configure.cflags is not in MP 1.4.3. I used it in a port also. Mark

But... But... Then why didn't the portindex process complain about it?
portindex doesn't do a full check of the portfiles (and isn't intended to). When it catches errors, it's mostly a lucky coincidence. -- Daniel J.
