It will hopefully really help sort out the many Solaris issues that remain. I also found polybori fails to compile on T2, despite the fact it builds on my machine at home, which does not have the Sun compiler suite installed in the path. Since install.log is 18 MB in size, which is too big to view with vi (I'll have to install vim to get around that), I've made a version with only the bits relevant to PolyBoRi. http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/Solaris-fixes/logs/solaris-install-log-from-mvngu.log (This is just taken from your file) Here's a summary of what is has been done by me. * I applied my own patch to get around the incorrect flags being sent to the linker. http://sagetrac.org/sage_trac/ticket/6437 * I applied the patch of Alexander Dreyer to fix the issue of CC and CXX not being applied properly. http://sagetrac.org/sage_trac/ticket/2999 Here's is a summary of what can be seen happening in http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/Solaris-fixes/logs/solaris-install-log-from-mvngu.log 1) Link 655 and 666 show "Checking for the operating system and linker, to find appropriate flags for the linker. You are using the Sun linker on Solaris. Linker flag set to -h" That was the point of patch http://sagetrac.org/sage_trac/ticket/6437 to force one of the linker flags to the correct value for the GNU linker. That is sufficient to build polybori on my home machine, which does not have the Sun C++ compiler CC in the path. 2) Line 661 shows g++ being invoked to compile the C++ file polybori/src/BoolePolyRing.cc That is the correct compiler. That was the intension of Alexander Dreyer's patch. My only concern about that line is the number of time some of the options are applied. For example, -fPIC is included three times. (I wonder if the same happens on linux or OS X?) 3) Line 693 shows gcc being invoked to compile M4RI/grayflex.c This is again the correct compiler. This does not suffer the problem of the line 661, as the flags are only included once. 4) Line 781 shows CC (the Sun C++ compiler) being used to build the static library Cudd/libpboriCudd.a This should NOT be happening in Sage. On my own machine 'ar' is used for this. Looking at the man page for 'ar' shows: User Commands ar(1) NAME ar - maintain portable archive or library Hence 'ar' does appear to be the correct command to use for this and CC is incorrect. However, despite the fact CC is used to do this, that line appears to work. 5) Line 782 shows /opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC (the Sun C++ compiler) being invoked to compile the C++ file Cudd/obj/cuddObj.cc Hence Alexander Dreyer's patch does not appear to work here, so I will mark http://sagetrac.org/sage_trac/ticket/2999 as [with path; needs work]' Given g++ was used to compile a C++ file earlier, it's not clear why PolyBoRi then switches to using the Sun C++ compiler. Possibly a patch similar to Alexander's needs to be applied to more than one file. (Is that possible Alexander, if you are reading this?) This line also shows numerous gcc-specific flags being passed to CC, as it is using the Sun compiler, with gcc options. 6) Line 791 shows 'gcc' being used to compile the C file Cudd/util/getopt.c This is the correct compiler, but it is using a Sun-specific option '-KPIC', so gcc issues a warning: gcc: unrecognized option '-KPIC' 7) Line 949 shows /opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC being used to compile the C++ file polybori/src/BoolePolyRing.cc This is the same error as (5), but this time numerous warnings are given about lines not terminated with a newline, failure to open the file <ext/hash_map>, anachronism etc. 8) Line 972 shows the first error: "polybori/include/CCuddNavigator.h", line 148: Error: iterator_traits is not a member of std. 9) There are are around 18 more errors, before the compilation aborts on line 995 with the message: Compilation aborted, too many Error messages. scons: *** [polybori/src/so_BoolePolyRing.o] Error 1 scons: building terminated because of errors. Error building PolyBoRi. As you can see, there is quite a mix of things going wrong during the build of PolyBoRi. Could I asked you do a few more favors? 1) Try to build zn_poly: $ ./sage -f zn_poly-0.9.p0.spkg which is included in Sage 4.1. I believe it will fail. In that case, can you try the package $ ./sage -f zn_poly-0.9.p1.spkg http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/Solaris-fixes/zn_poly/zn_poly-0.9.p1.spkg which is patch http://sagetrac.org/sage_trac/ticket/6443 Perhaps you could look at reviewing that patch if it allows zn_poly to build for you. 2) Reviewing the pari patch http://sagetrac.org/sage_trac/ticket/6445 Prior to that patch, pari actually generated more than 94,000 error messages! As you can see, it now builds ok. Thank you once again.
