Migration conflicting ports

[Adam Dershowitz]

So the problem was that fltk wasn’t building in 10.11?  When I recently upgraded, it built fine, but the conflict was octave requiring -devel while gmsh didn’t.  I had ended up force deactivating fltk (after installing gmsh) then installing octave and fltk-devel.  That seemed to be working temporarily.  

Sounds like all is fixed now.  I’ll try it out with just fltk and see what happens.  

Thanks much.
