      ---> Extracting eigen
      ---> Configuring eigen
      ---> Building eigen with target all
      ---> Staging eigen into destroot
      ---> Installing eigen
    - Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using eigen with these commands:
