The two sundials ports don't have exactly identical file names, but there is too much overlap to try a simple naming trick for installing them both it appears. If one of the ports you want to install has a bundled copy of sundials that you can statically link in, you might get away with that

Adam, Murray -- This small patch will patch the octave Portfile to make sundials2 support a variant. If you want to install octave without sundials2 support (so you can use openmodelica which needs sundials) this should allow you to do that. The command is: sudo port -v install octave
