To generate a clean log, please run:

sudo port clean octave
sudo port install octave

and if it fails again, attach the resulting main.log.

main.log for octave after clean then install

The brew version of octave seems ok, fyi.

I'm seeing the same thing on a fresh install of 12.4.

[Schamschula (Marius Schamschula)]

BTW: Upstream is up to version 7.1.0!

See PR: ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/14925

Note: Running the GUI requires Rosetta. Why?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The port was updated to 7.1.0, then 7.2.0, then 7.3.0. Does the problem still exist with that version?
