Hi, I am trying to install sage 4.1.1 from source but the build errors with the following message,

My system configuration is as follows, # uname -a Linux kalashnikov 2.6.27.7-9-default #1 SMP 2008-12-04 18:10:04 +0100 x86_64 unknown unknown GNU/Linux # cat /etc/*release LSB_VERSION="core-2.0-noarch:core-3.2-noarch:core-2.0-x86_64:core-3.2- x86_64" openSUSE 11.1 (x86_64) VERSION = 11.1 # gcc --version gcc (SUSE Linux) 4.3.2 [gcc-4_3-branch revision 141291] Let me know if any other information is required, any help would be greatly appreciated. PS: I was able to compile sage 4.1.1 without any problems on my laptop running 32 bit openSUSE 11.1 ~Vishnu --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
