Looks to me like wxWidgets-3.0 is the one that’s failing. Could you run the following commands and attach the main.log file that’s mentioned at failure?

% sudo port clean octave wxWidgets-3.0
% sudo port install wxWidgets-3.0

Replying to larryv@…: The requested file has been attached.

Is this still a problem?

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

This looks like a broken QuickTime library. I wouldn't bet on it, but this looks like unreproducible problem to me (with nobody else complaining about the same problem).

The same issue appears on mac OS 10.12 with Xcode 8 for me. Please see attached build log.

Build error on macOS Sierra

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

Marcel, your issue seems to be #52069.

[platipodium (Carsten Lemmen)]

Ii seem to have the same problem with qtplay on sierra

port clean qtplay
port build qtplay

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

Carsten, please open a new ticket as this is unrelated to wxWidgets (you may post a link here though).

One should fix qtplay. The port has no maintainer, it would be best if you could (also) file a ticket upstream.
