>Description:
1. octave-forge-base is marked BROKEN because of pkg-plist errors. I have checked it, and it seems to me that pkg-plist is correct.
However, the octave port seems to me to have various pkg-plist errors, especially if it is installed from a package rather than ports. It looks like there is a confusion between api-32 and api-37 directories, probably a typo that crept in.
2. The octave forge ports don't properly install the octave-forge files properly, issing errors of the form:
cp: not found
cp: not found
cp: not found
cp: not found
cp: not found
warning: package benchmark is empty
This particular error will probably not be seen by QAT, but will be noticed by users trying to use the port.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
1. Please remove the BROKEN status from octave-forge-base.
