This reminds me something. Recently i was building Singular from the sources. It kind of worked, but the timer was spoiled. Only rtimer did what it was supposed to. Hannes couldn't tell me what i did wrong. The timer of the downloaded Singular binary works, but the timer of "my own" Singular doesn't. Strange. I suspect that the timer problem of my Sage/Singular has the same source. By the way, i just checked that the timer of Sage/Singular on another machine (built by a colleague of mine) doesn't work either. Two questions: 1) Any idea why the Singular timer doesn't work when i build it? I mean, what piece of software involved in building Singular is responsible for the timer? 2) Would it work to replace the Sage-Singular by a softlink to the downloaded Singular binary (with timer)?
