Comment(by wlmcderm@…):

 I ran into the same problem as the original report while trying to install
 qtiplot0.9.8.3 de novo using macports1.9.1 with a mac running osx10.5.8.
 Any word on when the port of qtiplot will be upgraded to allow
 installation?

 Thanks for all the work in sorting this out.

 Replying to [comment:3 nicos_pavlov@…]:
 > It seems that the port was upgraded, but the patches were kept, although
 they are not valid anymore. I did some digging, and found that some
 dependencies were also missing, such as QTeXEngine, which is required
 during compilation.
 >
 > I made a port which seems to work in my case, in which I also added
 support for
 > originlab files, which is now in a separate library. This however
 requires a header for which I had to make another port.
 >
 > Finally, there is no support for Excel sheets in this version. The
 library employed is working fine, but it needs to be downloaded from a
 repository where a login is required (CodeProject). Would someone know if
 it is possible to download packages automatically for Macports from there
 ?
