I was running into gcc-config errors when the sage_fortran script tried to run sage_fortran.bin, which was a symbolic link to gfortran. (In my case, it came up when the install was trying to build lapack.) The problem is that gfortran is sensitive to the name by which it's called, and it doesn't know what the hell `sage_fortran.bin' means. A simple fix was to write `/usr/bin/gfortran' directly into the sage_fortran script, and now the compilation proceeded nicely.
Separately, I'm also running into the following error compiling cvxopt: gcc -pthread -shared build/temp.linux-ppc-2.5/C/base.o build/ temp.linux-ppc-2.5/C/dense.o build/temp.linux-ppc-2.5/C/sparse.o -L/ home/jj/sage-2.8.12/local/lib -L/home/jj/sage-2.8.12/local/lib/gcc-lib/ i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.3 -lm -llapack -lblas -lf95 -o build/lib.linux- ppc-2.5/cvxopt/base.so /usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/4.1.2/../../../../powerpc- unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lf95 Not quite sure how to fix that one. When I create a dummy cvxopt file in the spkg/installed directory, though, the rest of the compilation finishes, and SAGE seems to work fine. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://sage.math.washington.edu/sage/ and http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
