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

Hi,

I am trying to install Octave, upon which Atlas is a dependency. I have a recent macbook pro with SSD and plenty or RAM. The Atlas installation never finishes even though I have let my computer run for several days. It always gets stuck at the point I indicate below. How can I at least diagnose and fix this problem? Please see below.

Thank you.

Port: atlas added

Atlas should take many hours to compile on modern hardware, but not days. You can check the logfile, whose location is printed by the command:

port logfile atlas

but it's possible the end of the log is truncated. You could run the install with the verbose flag to see exactly what it's doing at the time of the hang:

sudo port -v install atlas

Note that single-letter flags like -v must appear between port and the command (install in this case), and have no effect if used elsewhere on the command line.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
