New description:

 When trying to install port octave on Mountain Lion I'm getting an error:

 {{{
 Error: org.macports.build for port octave returned: command execution
 failed
 }}}

 And finally:

 {{{
 Error: Processing of port octave failed
 }}}

 This is on Mountain Lion. I have tried the following, without success:

  1. Removed MacPorts completely
  2. Reinstalled MacPorts using 2.1.2 Mountain Lion package
  3. Confirmed Xcode command line tools have been installed
  4. sudo xcodebuild -license    (this fixed some prior problems)
  5. sudo port clean octave   and then attempted to reinstall
  6. Changed the server in sources.conf to
 “http://www.macports.org/files/ports.tar.gz [default]“  (this fixed other
 prior problems)

 This all helped with problems getting dependencies built. But no luck yet
 with octave or octave-devel. I will attach the log file.

Comment:

 The relevant error in the log seems to be:

 {{{
 fatal error: curl/types.h: No such file or directory
 }}}

 Try the port octave-devel instead; it's a newer version that might work
 better.
