It checks if they are GNU, if so checks the version numbers of gcc and g++ match etc. There is some redundacy here. Perhaps William wants to comment why. 1) There is a script 'prereq-0.4-install' which checks that make, ar, perl and a few others actually run. 2) There is a much more sophisticated 'configure' script which checks for version numbers. It does appear to me there is some redundancy here. Checking twice for perl, make etc causes no problems, but the check for gcc does if one wishes to use a non-GNU compiler. > I'm probably missing something... haven't looked at prereq in a while. > > Best, > Gonzalo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 URL: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
