Hi everyone,

I’m giving the GEMPAK build a spin on a Mac running OS X Mavericks (10.9) .

When I attempt to install gcc47 per Kevin’s instructions, I’m getting the 
following error message:

--->  Building libgcc
Error: org.macports.build for port libgcc returned: command execution failed
Error: Failed to install libgcc
Please see the log file for port libgcc for details:
    
/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_gcc48/libgcc/main.log
Error: The following dependencies were not installed: libgcc ppl glpk zlib
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port gcc47 failed

I do have Xcode installed. It seems the version that runs on OS X Mavericks 
includes Command Line Tools with it, as it’s not giving me the option to 
install it when I visit the Downloads section under Xcode.

I do have the correct version of MacPorts installed for OS X Mavericks.

I did notice when attempting to install gcc47, it prompted me to install Java 
since I didn’t have a version of Java on my system at the time. I did recently 
go to Java.com and install the latest version of Java for OS X. However, the 
installation generated the error before I had a chance to install Java.

I also don’t have X11 running on this system yet. I’m guessing I probably 
should install that before going any further.

I’m attempting this build on two Macs running Mavericks, so I’ll have a good 
chance to battle test Kevin’s instructions against Mavericks and report any 
kinks that arise.

What do I need to do to get gcc47 successfully installed on OS X Mavericks?

Thanks a bunch!

Nathan Parker
