#35409 closed defect

octave: fatal error: curl/types.h: No such file or directory — at Version 1

Reported by: bobm.dsp@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.2
Keywords: mountainlion Cc:
Port: octave

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

When trying to install port octave on Mountain Lion I'm getting an error: 

Error: org.macports.build for port octave returned: command execution failed

And finally: 

Error: Processing of port octave failed

This is on Mountain Lion. I have tried the following, without success:

  1. Removed MacPorts completely
  2. Reinstalled MacPorts using 2.1.2 Mountain Lion package
  3. Confirmed Xcode command line tools have been installed
  4. sudo xcodebuild -license (this fixed some prior problems)
  5. sudo port clean octave and then attempted to reinstall
  6. Changed the server in sources.conf to “​http://www.macports.org/files/ports.tar.gz [default]“ (this fixed other prior problems)

This all helped with problems getting dependencies built. But no luck yet with octave or octave-devel. I will attach the log file.

Summary: Processing of port octave failed on Mountain Lion → octave: fatal error: curl/types.h: No such file or directory

The relevant error in the log seems to be: 

fatal error: curl/types.h: No such file or directory

Try the port octave-devel instead; it's a newer version that might work better.
