Then I didn't express myself clearly by stating that the userland was 32 bit. But the point as David Kirkby mentioned often, is that (open)solaris is 64 bit capable but most of the applications are built 32 bit and this is the default. On a multilib system that default on building 32 bit having SAGE64 to make sure that everything is build 64 bit (if you so desire) is perfectly acceptable. Of course its use is rather limited and there is indeed no SAGE32 counterpart. -- 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
