Ticket #51424, comment 29
initial v1 1 1 I was able to build and install octave on my mac mini OS 10.11.5 using recommended 2 2 3 {{{ 3 4 sudo port clean octave 4 5 5 sudo port selfupdate 6 7 6 sudo port install octave 8 7 }}} 9 8 10 9 but encountered graphics problems for the app' that I am attempting to use with octave. Don't have the MacTex Latex installed. … … 12 11 Received following error message during the build: 13 12 14 ______________________ 13 {{{ 15 14 unless octave is run with --no-gui-libs, graphics_toolkit("fltk") will cause a 16 15 crash 17 18 16 ---> Cleaning octave 19 20 17 ---> Updating database of binaries 21 22 18 ---> Scanning binaries for linking errors 23 24 19 ---> No broken files found. 20 }}} 25 21 26 22 Tested octave out without using above recommended --no-gui-libs variant. It came up with nice looking graphics but when I attempted to use the vender supplied m-script based "featool" from Precision Simulation their graphics routines may have called up some fancier stuff which led to missing features in their example problem windows. This was alluded to in another macports octave ticket with a different number. Will try to find and install the MacTex Latex on my mac and per recommendation of the other ticket will set the path so the mac library for that appears first so it will be preferentially used by octave. If I have continued problems will report on that in the other ticket for that problem though I'm not sure it is a problem of lack of MacTex Latex graphics so will also be working with Precision Simulation who claim that their featool works on octave as well as Matlab.
