Following the instructions on the tutorial https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/github/nds-org/jupyter-et/blob/master/CactusTutorial.ipynb:

sudo port -N install pkgconfig gcc9 openmpi-gcc9 fftw-3 gsl jpeg zlib hdf5 +fortran +gfortran openssl ld64
sudo port select mpi openmpi-gcc9-fortran
sudo port select gcc mp-gcc9

I get failures during sim-build like so:
