Re: Control package fails to install

Baba,

For some reason, it is looking for paths of a MacPorts installation of octave.

However, it seems that you may have upgraded your version of macOS w/o reinstalling your Homebrew packages (aarch64-apple-darwin20 vs. aarch64-apple-darwin21). This caused libgfortran not to be found, and, thus,  the fatal error.
