Hi! I recently got a laptop, and I have a linux partition on it, namely openSUSE 12.1.
So far, I have trouble building Sage. sage-4.8.alpha3 did build, but maxima would not start, because it can not find mgnuplot > ./sage -maxima /home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.8.alpha3/local/bin/maxima: lisp="mgnuplot" not known. Use --list-avail to see possible options. No idea where to get that from. gnuplot is installed (and it is not listed as dependency anyway). Next, I tried to build sage-4.7.2, but that went even worse, when building readline: /bin/sh ../support/shlib-install -O linux-gnu -V unknown -d /home/ simon/SAGE/sage-4.7.2/local/lib64 -b /home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.7.2/local/ bin -i "/usr/bin/install -c -m 644" libreadline.so.6.1 install: you may need to run ldconfig make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.7.2/spkg/build/ readline-6.1/src/shlib' make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.7.2/spkg/build/ readline-6.1/src' Error: Readline's build claims to have finished, but files that should have been built weren't. Indeed, in the install.log, I read: rm -f libreadline.a ar cr libreadline.a readline.o vi_mode.o funmap.o keymaps.o parens.o search.o rltty.o complete.o bind.o isearch.o display.o signals.o util.o kill.o undo.o macro.o input.o callback.o terminal.o text.o nls.o misc.o compat.o xfree.o xmalloc.o history.o histexpand.o histfile.o histsearch.o shell.o mbutil.o tilde.o test -n "ranlib" && ranlib libreadline.a and later mv /home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.8.alpha3/local/lib/libreadline.a /home/ simon/SAGE/sage-4.8.alpha3/local/lib/libreadline.old mv: Aufruf von stat für „/home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.8.alpha3/local/lib/ libreadline.a“ nicht möglich: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden make[2]: [install-static] Fehler 1 (ignoriert) /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 libreadline.a /home/simon/SAGE/ sage-4.8.alpha3/local/lib/libreadline.a test -n "ranlib" && ranlib /home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.8.alpha3/local/lib/ libreadline.a mv /home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.8.alpha3/local/lib/libhistory.a /home/simon/ SAGE/sage-4.8.alpha3/local/lib/libhistory.old mv: Aufruf von stat für „/home/simon/SAGE/sage-4.8.alpha3/local/lib/ libhistory.a“ nicht möglich: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden In other words, apparently it has created libreadline.a (and also libhistory.a), but when it tries to move it to a different location then the files are gone. Any idea how to debug this? Are these two known issues?
