I don't know whether this has ben mentioned already on this list, but also Python has problems with Debian multi-arch. Python doesn't know that it has to look in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu for libraries, so building the crypt module fails and building some of the hash functions for hashlib fails.
Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH doesn't help. Symlinking libcrypt.so and libssl.so into $SAGE_LOCAL/lib does help. -- 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
