Problem compiling / installing octave

[Stephen Done]

Hi,

I'm having trouble installing octave. I keep getting the following
error message:

stephen-dones-computer:~ srdone$ sudo port install octave
--->  Configuring gmp
Error: Target com.apple.configure returned: can't read
"configure.cflags": no such variable
Error: The following dependencies failed to build: gcc42 gmp libiconv
mpfr glpk gnuplot expat fontconfig freetype zlib gd2 jpeg libpng
ncurses ncursesw pdflib readline teTeX gawk gettext ghostscript gsed
texi2html texinfo hdf5 pcre
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
