<div dir="ltr">I have installed the MacPorts 2.2.1 package and am interested in installing Octave and its dependencies. I thought I saw somewhere that Octave installs these dependencies automatically but that might have been an error.<div>
I have downloaded Octave 3.4.6 in a folder in my /users directory and am attempting to run it on Mavericks which I have heard has has a lot of issues with compatibility.</div><div>The folders/files that I have in my /users directory are: 'man3-has files like LAPACK, BLAS,etc, 'ports' which has a 'devel' folder among many others, a 'Portfile.txt' that contains octave 3.2.4, also a 'readline', a 'gcc48', 'llvm-gcc48', gawk, and a 'math-BSD-atlas' set of Portfiles among others which I could acquire.</div>
<div>I also have the 'octave 3.4.6' folder that contains many files and folders for installation, make, run, etc.</div><div>I also have a 'general' folder and files, an 'audio' folder and files and a Portfile.txt file for DSDP.</div>
<div>I believe that some combination of these files or file types must be installed, compiled, built and run to use Octave from the command line or from Xcode which I use regularly.</div><div>Any suggestions on how to bring these tools together to use Octave would be greatly appreciated.</div>
<div>Thank you for your time,</div><div>Patrick</div></div>
