The ports <code>cctools</code> and <code>curl</code> consistently need to be cleaned prior to the <code>port mdmg octave-local ...</code> command. The reason for this is not understood (yet), but one hint is seen during the compilation of the DMG. | |||

Both <code>macros.texi</code>, <code>octave.info</code>, and the <code>octave.info-#</code> files are missing. Until the cause for these missing files is identified and resolved, they will have to be copied manually to the App bundle (one possibility is that the <code>+docs</code> variant is not used.
