The make process fails as a result of errors that occur when various Python modules are verified. I am running using Cygwin on a 32-bit version of Windows 7, which is where I want to use Sage. The log file for the package python-2.7.5.p1 contains the following text:
Testing importing of various modules... ctypes module imported OK math module imported OK ./spkg-install: line 133: 2324 Aborted (core dumped) python -c "import $module" hashlib module failed to import crypt module imported OK readline module imported OK ./spkg-install: line 133: 5440 Aborted (core dumped) python -c "import $module" socket module failed to import Error: One or more modules failed to import. The Python interpreter included with Cygwin executes python -c "import hashlib" without incident, while the version built with Sage prints Aborted (core dumped). However, there is no problem if the version provided by Sage is run with no arguments and the line import hashlib is entered. I have found relevant commentary at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18098982/beautiful-soup-4-2-1-on-cygwin-core-dumping#. Despite being written about a different project, it suggests a problem with passing this type of parameter to the Python interpreter under Cygwin. Please let me know if any other parts of my log files or build directory are relevant. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
