Whoops, it looks like my patch in ticket 12144 has rotted. I'm attaching an updated patch to the ticket.

So now you can:

sudo port clean --work octave
cd `port dir octave`
sudo patch -p0 < ~/Desktop/octave-gcc42-2.diff
sudo port install octave

The patch will disappear the next time you do a "sudo port selfupdate" or "sudo port sync".

I don't use octave and I haven't tried the patch myself so if you run into more problems please let us know.

This patch was insufficient for getting the install to work. I get the failure:

--->  Building octave with target all
Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/ local/var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_math_ octave/work/octave-2.9.9" && make all " returned error 2
Command output: ls: *.cc: No such file or directory

But at least you got past the initial problem Jackson had, which was that gcc40 wouldn't build. Now, you have successfully built gcc42, it seems, and are having problems with octave.

Jackson reported that gcc42 wouldn't build for him either, so maybe he had something else going on.

I think I'll apply the patch anyway, if someone else doesn't get to it first.
