Thanks, that fixed the issues I was having so far. I was finally able to build the current Octave (3.8.2) successfully on a clean MacPorts install, with the following two commands:

sudo port install gcc49
sudo port install octave

… though the latter did end up installing gcc48 too!

Now back to my original goal, getting multiple versions of octave installed … if I now do the following to build version 3.6.4 of Octave …

svn co -r 121949 http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/math/octave
cd octave
sudo port install1

… will it overwrite the version 3.8.2 I currently have installed? If so, how can I avoid that and have it install as octave-3.6.4 or something?

Thanks again,

    Ray
