#51707: Octave needs to depend on gcc minor version number
---------------------------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: MacPorts@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4
Keywords: octave gcc5 minor version | Port: octave

For details, see [https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?41520]
The upshot is that Octave needs to depend explicitly on the minor version
number of gcc so that octave gets rebuilt when upgrading from gcc 5.3 to
5.4, etc. The reason is that mkoctfile depends on a directory that has
the minor version in its name, and there seems to be no mechanism for
generalizing this. The symptom is that Octave's pkg command does not work
for installing things like the control package from Octave forge.
