I can concur with others here that making something work on Mac can be a
miserable experience.
That’s the opposite of my experience.
Anyway, I tried "sudo port install p5.16-ifeffit" and failed:
~/Downloads% sudo port install p5.16-ifeffit
---> Computing
dependencies for p5.16-ifeffit
---> Dependencies to be installed: ifeffit pgplot perl5.16 gdbm
---> Extracting pgplot
Error: org.macports.extract for port pgplot returned: command execution failed
Error: Failed to install pgplot
Please see the log file for port pgplot for details:
/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_pgplot/pgplot/main.log
Error: The following dependencies were not installed: ifeffit pgplot perl5.16
gdbm
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port p5.16-ifeffit failed
~/Downloads%
(This is upon rerunning the command - the first time, it installed many more
dependencies -- does anyone else suspect "port" of being designed to fill hard
disks as fast as possible?) System is 10.9 generally up-to-date with most
things. pgplot seems to fail during extraction.
The pgplot port extracts and installs fine for me on OS X (10.6 through 10.9).
But this is completely off-topic for this list. Please go to the Macports users
mailing list [1] for support about this issue.
I doubt that I'd be able to contribute a lot to this project, but I can test
things.
That is helpful.
Also I'm surprised to read so much about gfortran about this thread, but maybe
I'm missing some common knowledge on the project ... I am generally much
happier with Ifort.
gfortran is the only fortran compiler that will work with Macports since it is
open source.
Cheers!
