When you build packages in parallel, it is possible that a build failure is due to race conditions. That is a known problem with the current parallel build system of Sage.

I have checked in all changes in your name. The updated SPKG is up at http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mvngu/patch/polybori-0.5rc.p9.spkg I have started building it on t2 using Sage 4.1, the same Sage version that previously failed to build PolyBori. -- Regards Minh Van Nguyen --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
