Good question, and I hope somebody else can improve my response. I didn't find a gcc switching tool like I've used in the distant past, so I went to /usr/bin, did an 'ls -l gc*' and noted that gcc and something else (gcov?) pointed to the gcc-4.4 versions. There were also gcc-4.3 versions, so I just did cd /usr/bin sudo rm gcc gcov sudo ln -s gcc-4.3 gcc sudo ln -s gcov-4.3 gcov The problem is that then Sage dies with some make error [255] in the Atlas build, and rather than to keep mucking around with earlier gcc versions I'm going to ping the pari mailing list. The raw pari.tar downloads show the same problems reproducibly, so of course they should be made aware. I also tried a bunch of different -f flags on gcc-4.4 in the pari tar files and nothing helped. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
