I've created a binary distribution of 4.2 on my old SPARC with Solaris 03/2005.
I then moved that to a newer/faster SPARC running Solaris 10 update 7 (05/2009), opened the notebook up, and tried to access it from another computer. ie. * Build binary on Solaris 10 03/2005 (SPARC) * Run the binary on Solaris 10 05/2009 (SPARC) * Use Firefox on OpenSolaris (x86) to view the notebook. It is creating an error message: /opt/kirkby/sage-4.2-Solaris-10-SPARC-sun4u-SunOS/local/bin/sage-native-execute: xdg-open: not found Is 'xdg-open' supposed to be included in Sage anywhere, or is the user expected to have it on their machine? The file certainly does not exist anywhere on Solaris 10 03/2005 and I do not think on the later version either. I note Wolfram Research ship that file with Mathematica, so I assume they do not expect to find it on Solaris. 'xdg-open' *does* however exist as /usr/bin/xdg-open on OpenSolaris on x86. Looking at the script I see: #!/usr/bin/bash #--------------------------------------------- # xdg-open # # Utility script to open a URL in the registered default application. # # Refer to the usage() function below for usage. # # Copyright 2006, Kevin Krammer <kevin.kram...@gmx.at> # Copyright 2006, Jeremy White <jwh...@codeweavers.com> # # LICENSE: # # Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a # copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), # to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation # the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, If this file is hidden in one of the .spkg files, it does not get copied to $SAGE_ROOT/local/bin. So unless I am mistaken, the 'xdg-open' script needs to be added to the Sage distribution. It is only 10 KB in size.
