I am confused. Do you say that FOO is defined regardless whether the optional package foo is installed or not? Where does it come from? Perhaps from running ./configure in SAGE_ROOT, which checks the content of build/pkgs/? And why is there such an indirection? If the dependency is called foo, shouldn't it be possible to name it foo rather than FOO? And why does it need to be *manually* decorated with $(INST)/? Shouldn't it be enough to give a list of unmodified package names, optionally modified by prescribing a range of acceptable version numbers? Thus, why "$(INST)/MEATAXE $(INST)/DATABASE_GAP" rather than "meataxe database_gap"? By the way, concerning docs: Building the docs has never been a very pleasant experience for me, but it became a nightmare recently. It takes more ages on my laptop, because of swapping. And that used not to happen in the not so distant past. Cheers, Simon -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
