I got this from the "report a problem" link. I don't know if it is really a problem or what the cause is.
I'm building sage 4.2 on an amd64 machine running gentoo using a provided ebuild. There are no obvious errors in install.log. However, sage does not startup cleanly. When 'sage -c quit' is issued the following results: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/sage/local/bin/sage-eval", line 4, in <module> from sage.all import * File "/opt/sage/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/all.py", line 64, in <module> from sage.misc.all import * # takes a while File "/opt/sage/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/misc/all.py", line 70, in <module> from sage_input import sage_input File "/opt/sage/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/misc/ sage_input.py", line 163, in <module> from sage.misc.functional import parent File "/opt/sage/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/misc/ functional.py", line 37, in <module> from sage.rings.complex_double import CDF File "complex_double.pyx", line 88, in sage.rings.complex_double (sage/rings/complex_double.c:13818) File "/opt/sage/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/rings/ complex_field.py", line 86, in ComplexField C = ComplexField_class(prec) File "/opt/sage/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/rings/ complex_field.py", line 177, in __init__ self._populate_coercion_lists_(coerce_list=[complex_number.RRtoCC (self._real_field(), self)]) File "complex_number.pyx", line 2004, in sage.rings.complex_number.RRtoCC.__init__ (sage/rings/complex_number.c: 13046) File "complex_number.pyx", line 153, in sage.rings.complex_number.ComplexNumber.__init__ (sage/rings/ complex_number.c:3183) File "parent.pyx", line 380, in sage.structure.parent.Parent.__call__ (sage/structure/parent.c:4241) File "map.pyx", line 173, in sage.categories.map.Map._call_ (sage/ categories/map.c:3481) NotImplementedError: <type 'sage.rings.real_mpfr.int_toRR'> Others have reported this same type of error on amd64 machines but relative to building sage in the "usual" way with the sage-provided makefile. When I do this sage builds, all tests pass and the above errors are not present. Is it possible that this is an amd64-related bug that the gentoo package managing system is discovering? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
