why do you do "./sage -combinat install" at this stage instead of
simply typing "make"?

Usually, in the directory "devel", the link "sage" (yes, it is a link)
points to "sage-main". Asking again, do you really want to step into
the currently experimental and quite evolving "combinat" stuff??

Maybe you just should have typed "make" (see above).

(But if you are interested in the combinat stuff, there is rumour of a
special "combinat" sage-4.1 version, see:
http://groups.google.com/group/sage-release/browse_thread/thread/1283f6b54ba5d738#)

The stuff further needed was installed as libraries under "local/
lib/", or as headers under "local/include" --- after that, any
intermediate object files (that had been generated under "spkg/
build/") were deleted. Look in "spkg/build" during compilation time,
or use e.g. "./sage -f -s atlas-3.8.3.p3" instead of "./sage -f
atlas-3.8.3.p3" (i.e. with an additional "-s") to prevent the deletion
of the intermediate files there.

You were right, the Sage binaries do not contain e.g. the atlas
sources. But scripts do download them if needed, as you could do
successfully (and as you noticed, I guess).

Cheers,
gsw
