 Hello,

 I am trying to install octave on my PowerBook G4. I have run

 {{{
 $ sudo port selfupdate
 }}}

 and

 {{{
 $ sudo port upgrade outdated
 }}}

 The last dependency to install, qrupdate, fails to build and gives the
 following output:

 {{{
 $ sudo port install octave
 --->  Computing dependencies for octave
 --->  Dependencies to be installed: qrupdate
 --->  Fetching qrupdate
 --->  Attempting to fetch qrupdate-1.1.1.tar.gz from http://superb-

 I am attaching the log file cited above.

 That’s your opinion. In the field of HPC, 10% is a lot, especially when
 all you have to do is change compiler. It’s about half an hour win every
 four hours.
 If a user is not concerned with Atlas, he can just opt out by selecting
 the no_atlas variants and get standard Accelerate framework performance.
 If he cares about Atlas, then it’s probably to squeeze the most out of his
 hardware.
