octave forge packages on a mac |

Hi all,
I'm trying to run octave with octave forge packages on my mac (OSX 10.10.5)
but have some problems in doing it.
Before V4.03 Octave was not available as a .dmg so I managed to have it
running properly (included forge packages) through macPort.
when the octave 4.03 came out in .dmg the macPorts support was discontinued
so I thought to remove the macPort version (keeping macPorts) and try the
4.03 on .dmg
Everything seems ok at the beginning but when I installed the forge package
("pkg install odepkg -forge") though I got some warnings during the process
the new functions were working. Unfortunately at some point I had other
problems with Octave (I leave the details for the moment since it is
complicated to explain) and decided to reinstall it from the .dmg. To do so
I thought (maybe naively) that thrashing octave app and rerunning the .dmg
would do the trick but the problem actually got worse.
Now I can only install/run Octave 4.0.3 and if I try to do "pkg install
odepkg -forge" I get an error.
If anyone can give me a help on this it would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Marco
