Hi all, So I just tried to do a sage -upgrade, and it failed trying to install mpfi. The log showed that libgmp.la was complaining that it was relocated; indeed, libgmp.la contained the following lines at the end:
# Directory that this library needs to be installed in: libdir='/Users/craigcitro/sage-2.10/local/lib' This is where I'd first run make, but I'd moved the sage install tree, and this didn't get updated. Also, doing a strings - libgmp.dylib shows references to that same path as well. I know that when you move the install tree, the first time you start Sage, it says "The sage install seems to have been moved, wait a moment" or something along these lines. [...] So I just discovered how that works, i.e. I discovered the local/bin/sage-location script. It looks like it should go through and fix exactly this kind of thing; I just did a ' grep "/my/old/path" *.la ' in sage/local/lib, and sure enough, none of these files have been changed. So I edited sage/local/lib/sage-current-location.txt to point to the old location, and re-ran sage-location. It fixed *almost* everything -- I still had the following line left: libmpfr.la:dependency_libs=' -L/sage/local/lib /Users/craigcitro/sage-2.10/local/lib/libgmp.la' So the fix seems obvious: make sage-location smart enough to correct these dependency_libs lines as well, which it doesn't seem to do at all. However, there's something suspicious about that: if I do a ' grep "dependency_libs" *.la ' in my local/lib directory, there are plenty of files that have that line. However, the mpfr one is the only one that still needs correcting. So here's the question: how did the other ones get corrected? Or, maybe more to the point, however the other ones got corrected, why didn't libmpfr.la? The only thing I can think of is that I'm currently halfway through a sage -upgrade, so maybe they were corrected because those packages had all been rebuilt? (I'm dubious about this, because several packages with .la files didn't change between 2.10 and 2.10.1, so most of those packages shouldn't have been rebuilt.) -cc --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
