Wow you're fast! I'm running ./sage -t * with 3.0.3 under emulation right now and trying a new compile, I intended to post results once they completed.
Sorry not to have been in communication, I've just finished my finals and would like to pitch in and help. It feels like the port is very close, do you intend to submit port files and stay in contact with the freebsd ports people to track releases? Writing the Makefile will take a little thought w/r/t future compatability. I was thinking of writing up a linux-sage-math port which would install binaries and require the appropriate kernel emulation and base tools, but I think the real port is close enough to skip that kind of crutch. > * Nearly everything happening for the Solaris port also fixes *BSD > issues It certainly seems so, with the exception of g/tar (tar -i didn't work, i'll make a list of scripts using that option) everything is compiling very smoothly.

From your previous email it looks like it should be "[...] as small as possible, i.e. basic setup without GUI + dev tools [gcc mostly]." Do you have any other requirements? A list on the wiki of what every minimal testing image should include? And I assume you meant /with/ dev tools like gcc, not without? -bryan (ps, re: usernames, it looks like google has changed their account linking?) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
