The error seems to come from (1) My having a crufty Ada + other

_finding_ it and (3) spaces in the path name going into an
unquoted path string somewhere. It was parallel to my "good" Ada
installation but not in my PATH variable. Hmmm.... So I de-crufted
by trashing it, and still get the above error. I'm guessing that
the installer script is still remembering that bad path. How do I
restart the Octave installation?
port clean --work octave
Did that. Then did sudo port install octave once again, with pretty
much the same results--same pathname problem. I'm getting the teTeX
complaint again but there is no portfile for octave to edit. Also, I
have texlive_texmf-minimal installed--I don't know if that satisfies
Octave's requirement. If so, why is it still trying to install teTeX.

I've probably terribly confused everybody so maybe I should just
start over with these two installations now that I've gotten rid
of the spurious compiler collection. What is the best way to do
that? I have only one other macport installed, binutils.
Instructions for removing MacPorts (after which you can reinstall
MacPorts) are in the FAQ:
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/
FAQ#HowdoIremoveoruninstallMacPorts
But you probably don't need to remove MacPorts.
