Description
octave-specfun 1.1.0_10 fails to build with message 'Failed to extract'.
This installation has successfully installed octave and a selection of ports, except this one. It also built octave-specfun 1.1.0_9 prior to this upgrade.
The file /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/octave-specfun/specfun-1.1.0.tar.gz is manually extractible with tar.
OS is Mavericks, XCode 6.2, architecture x86_64.

This seems to be a problem with the obsolete PortGroup. I did nothing different in marking the port obsolete than I have done in the past.

It could be an interaction with the octave portgroup. But on the other hand, why not just delete the port if it is obsolete and there is no replacement?

The octave PG could well be at fault with the recent move to the octave category. I'll have a look.

The problem seems to only occur when trying to upgrade an existing install. On my build machine I had previously uninstalled octave-specfun, and I get
% sudo port -v install octave-specfun octave-specfun is known to fail. Try to install anyway?

Package obsoleted. Error should have no incidence on the operation of Octave, except confusing ppl. who have the package installed and try to upgrade.
Probable reason why I had this package was a confusion between Octave's core 'Special functions' (bessel etc) and package specfun which are different things under a same name. It may be the case that I never used the package. I was not able to check if specfun functions have been migrated to another place. However that's an upstream concern.
User-side fix pretty straightforward : Uninstall octave-specfun.
This port was supposed to be marked as obsolete in [a89ef1aa3fc3268623a54b7f52aa2f7fa879c336/macports-ports], but that doesn't seem to have worked very well since it doesn't indicate that anywhere in the description or message when you try to install it.
