#43092: port install octave +atlas+docs processing failed

-------------------------+--------------------------------
Just installed Macports with the intention of using it to install Octave.
Obviously I'm very new as I'm a first timer.
When attempting to install Octave with command: sudo port install octave
+atlas+docs, I get the Error: Processing of port octave failed.
Questions:
1. Does this mean that Octave was not installed at all?
1a. Or does it mean that only the failed dependencies, (eg Error:
The following dependencies were not installed: SuiteSparse atlas arpack
gcc48 cctools ... ) were not installed?
1b. If on the contrary Octave was installed except for
dependencies, where could I find executable?
2. What happened to all the dependencies that were installed eg Installing
libxml2 @2.9.1_0 which had no errors?
2a. Where were they installed?
3. What do terms "Activating" and "Cleaning" (eg ---> Installing libtool
@2.4.2_3 ---> Activating libtool @2.4.2_3) actually do?
3a. Do they overwrite libraries and files already there before
this operation?
4. If I decide to not attempt the port installation of Octave and try
other means, how do I clean up?
