Processing port Octave failed

[pduzinski@…]

Attempted to install Octave using "sudo port install octave +atlas+docs" After a good many successful dependency installations, several failed. Below is terminal text. Please let me know if there is any remedy. It also failed when using "sudo port clean" to clean getting message:

"Can't map the URL 'file://.' to a port description file ("Could not find Portfile in /Users/Phil").
Please verify that the directory and portfile syntax are correct. To use the current port, you must be in a port's directory."

"Can't map the URL 'file://.' to a port description file ("Could not find Portfile in /Users/Phil").
Please verify that the directory and portfile syntax are correct. To use the current port, you must be in a port's directory."

The clean command requires the port to be cleaned as argument.

Please try a clean attempt and attach the log file if it fails:

$ sudo port clean octave
$ sudo port selfupdate
$ sudo port install octave +atlas+docs

In the future please use WikiFormatting and don't forget to Cc the maintainer and fill in the port field.
