I've just succeeded in getting all doctests to pass on Solaris. After updating
sqlite, which awaits review at:
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8408
as well as the following (some need review)
* #7867 Python patch, to allow Sage library to build.
* #8191 Addition of iconv, which is needed for R
* #8285 Update R's spkg-install to work on Solaris
* #8363 Remove a useless check for mpir in cddlib
* #8375 Numerical noise in devel/sage/sage/symbolic/pynac.pyx
* #8374 Numerical noise in devel/sage/sage/symbolic/constants_c.pyx
* #8371 Patch to allow pyprocessing to build - it failed after python was
patched as #7867. (Note #6503 aims to remove pyprocessing completely).
ALL the Solaris doctests pass on my Blade 1000!!!
Prior to updating sqlite, 5 tests were failing, but the sqlite update sorted
them all out.
The longest test is taking about 460 s on my 10-year old machine, but I rekon on
't2' one would have to set SAGE_TIMEOUT to 2000 s to be safe, as 't2', which is
designed for very different tasks, is significantly slower than my machine.
I suspect someone will manage to break something in the next release, but if the
release is handled carefully, it should be possible to produce a Sage which not
only builds on Solaris, but passed all doctests too.
I have not yet run the long doctests. (Perhaps I'm frightened too!)
