I checked the FAQ and wiki, but was not able to find an answer. Google wasn't my friend either.

I'm running Octave 3.8.0 on OS X Yosemite 10.10.5.

When I try to install the io package with
pkg install -forge io

I get the following error message(s):

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

How did you install octave?

If you installed from a .dmg file, you do not have the required developer tools (Xcode), i.e. make or the MacPorts gcc 4.7 compiler referenced to build any octave packages.
