Hi, I just wanted to raise awareness (and apologize) that the re-organization of the layout of Sage broke so many optional spkg's. In case people run into similar problems, here's what I'm doing to workaround this mess for sage-6.2 in SageMathCloud.
1. These databases are broken: cunningham_tables database_jones_numfield database_kohel database_odlyzko_zeta database_sloane_oeis database_stein_watkins_mini.p0 One workaround is to do this: # in SAGE_ROOT ln -s local/share data but the SAGE_DATA variable is gone as well... so you have to add this *BACK* to src/bin/sage-env (after SAGE_SHARE): # this is to be compatible with optional packages that haven't # been updated to not use SAGE_DATA export SAGE_DATA="$SAGE_SHARE" (Hopefully, this can be added back or the packages fixed for sage-6.3.) 2. Another broken package is p_group_cohomology which doesn't build: pGroupCohomology/resolution.pxd:21:0: 'interrupt.pxi' not found I don't know a fix. 3. There's an optional package called pybtex which doesn't work. The package TOPCOM-0.17.4 fails to build: ./spkg-install: line 11: cd: /usr/local/sage/sage-6.1/spkg/standard/: No such file or directory I don't know a fix. This is all on Ubuntu 12.04 with pretty much anything imaginable installed. Trac http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/14962 is supposed to be about packages broken by the git reorganization, but it's closed. -- William -- William Stein Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://wstein.org -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
