We are currently having a problem building the gcc ports with OS X 10.7.2 / Xcode 4.2. https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31604#comment:84 Please read my last comment in that ticket and see if my suggestion helps and let us know. > The instructions for building scipy for Mac OS 10.7 refer to > installing gfortran from > http://r.research.att.com/gfortran-lion-5666-3.pkg .

Please do not install some other fortran compiler; it could interfere with the build of this or other ports (as installing other fortran compilers already has many times before, for example the libtool port). _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
