Still, not sure why it's trying to install teTeX if you already

texlive. The octave port is written to only care if there is a

local/bin that should be enough.
The tex binary (or the link to it anyway) is provided by the
texlive port, so just having texlive_texmf-minimal isn't enough.
Jerry, I think at this point you would want to do the following,
assuming you don't want to install texlive_texmf-full:
sudo port clean --all teTeX
That went OK.
sudo port install texlive +minimal
This terminated with my "standard error"--a reference to non-
existing directories possibly caused by spaces in the path name.
Just for completeness, here it is again:

You could try searching every file in /opt/local to see which ones
contain the string "before Dec 12, 2007"
Sorry for the confusion. I explained in one of my earlier posts
that the string "before Dec 12, 2007" was the name of a directory
in /usr/local which I subsequently deleted upon encountering the
current problem. The directory was called either "before Dec 12,
2007" or most likely "ada-4.3 before Dec 12, 2007" which contained
most of the gcc compilers including Ada 4.3. I had apparently
renamed the folder before doing a fresh installation of the
compilers, probably on that date, then forgot to trash it when
things were going well. I don't know how macports found it; also,
there were two other Ada compilers in the /usr/local, called
ada-4.2 and ada-4.3, the latter being on my PATH variable (but not
the one with "before Dec 12, 2007" in it).
In case it's important, my PATH is
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/ada-4.3/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/
bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/Applications
Jerry
grep "before Dec 12, 2007" -r /opt/local
Then using "port provides /path/to/file" you can figure out which
port provided that file and then reinstall that port...
Unless someone has another idea, I think I'll start from scratch.
I assume I can just delete /opt/local
If this is not too inconvenient for you, it would be the surest
way to resolve the problem... To uninstall MacPorts, you should
delete all directories into which MacPorts might potentially
install, not just /opt/local. See the uninstall instructions in
the FAQ:
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/
FAQ#HowdoIremoveoruninstallMacPorts
but there is probably a way to delete only installed ports
without deleting the port system itself.
To do it that way, for each installed port foo (see "port
installed"), run "sudo port -f uninstall foo".
