After installing enough latex packages so that the docs seemed to build, my build still fails here: ... make[3]: Entering directory `/scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/spkg/build/giac-2010-07-17/src/doc' make install-exec-hook make[4]: Entering directory `/scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/spkg/build/giac-2010-07-17/src/doc' /bin/bash /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/spkg/build/giac-2010-07-17/src/config/install-sh -d /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/local/shar e/giac/doc/dxcas /bin/bash /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/spkg/build/giac-2010-07-17/src/config/install-sh -d /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/local/shar e/giac/doc//pari /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ../doc/dxcas/* /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/local/share/giac/doc/dxcas /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ../doc/pari/* /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/local/share/giac/doc/pari ln -s ../aide_cas /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/local/share/giac/doc/aide_cas ln: creating symbolic link `/scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/local/share/giac/doc/aide_cas': File exists make[4]: *** [install-exec-hook] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/spkg/build/giac-2010-07- ---- I manually deleted the relevant file /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/local/share/giac/doc/aide_cas and was able to get the build to finish. So very close to "works first try". How do I surpress printing when using giac? E.g., how do I keep giac from printing massive amounts when I do: 8>> f1:=(x+y+z+1)^20+1; p1:=normal(f1*(f1+1)); 9>> factor(p1); By the way, I tried the above and it took only 0.63 seconds, which is very impressive (!). It's much faster than Sage-4.4.4 and Magma. sage: R.<x,y,z> = QQ[] sage: f1 = (x+y+z+1)^20+1; p1=f1*(f1+1) sage: time a = p1.factor() CPU times: user 19.65 s, sys: 0.00 s, total: 19.65 s Wall time: 19.68 s sage: k=magma(p1) sage: magma.eval('time a := Factorization(%s);'%k.name()) 'Time: 9.480' -- 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
