Description
While upgrading octave from 3.0.x to 3.2.2 I got two errors, one related to gperf (that I actually did not install) and one about missing TeX.
Notice that I was upgrading the existing octave port so 3.0.x was built without both gperf and a tex binary.
If octave needs those in order to be built then the portfile should definitely list them as deps.
I'm attaching significative excerpts from the output.

gperf (3.0.1 or a more recent version) -- required if you need to recreate oct-gperf.h from octave.gperf
oct-gperf.h and octave.gperf are both part of the latest octave package.
The TeX seems like it is related to texinfo instead, and doesn't seem to occur in a pristine macports install on snow leopard.
Please reopen this issue with more details (list of installed ports maybe, or tests of a working texinfo with octave not getting it to work correctly) if I'm mistaken in closing it.
Any updates on this?
