Error: org.macports.build for port octave-statistics returned: command execution failed

[silvio.tarca@…]

I successfully installed octave, and then attempted to install octave-statistics. However, the build failed. (I have found octave to be quite unstable -- uninstalling and installing several times over the years.) The log output for the failed installation of octave-statistics follows. Thank you, Silvio.
