I'm new to SAGE and to this support group so I hope I am asking the right question in the right area. I am trying to package SAGE v2.9 for PCLinuxOS (an up-and-coming Linux distribution). My first question is actually a problem I ran into when trying to make PDF documentation.
After changing directories to devel/doc I ran make PDF. This complained at me that some python module was not available. So, I changed the Makefile to use sage-python instead of the default python. This made the documentation build process go a lot farther, but it still failed with the following error. I'm not too familiar with makeindex, so I don't understand the error. Can someone please guide me along here? Thanks in advance! P.S. on a side note, does anyone know where I can find an SRPM or just a SPEC file for SAGE from some other distribution (Mandriva or RedHat perhaps?) make pdf cd paper-letter && TEXINPUTS=/home/gri6507/src/rpm/BUILD/sage-2.9/ devel/doc-main/commontex: sage-python /home/gri6507/src/rpm/BUILD/ sage-2.9/devel/doc-main/tools/mkhowto --paper=letter --pdf ../ref/ ref.tex +++ TEXINPUTS=/home/gri6507/src/rpm/BUILD/sage-2.9/devel/doc-main/ref:/ home/gri6507/src/rpm/BUILD/sage-2.9/devel/doc-main/commontex:/home/ gri6507/src/rpm/BUILD/sage-2.9/devel/doc-main/paper-letter:/home/ gri6507/src/rpm/BUILD/sage-2.9/devel/doc-main/texinputs: +++ pdflatex ref +++ makeindex ref.idx +++ pdflatex ref +++ makeindex -s /home/gri6507/src/rpm/BUILD/sage-2.9/devel/doc-main/ texinputs/python.ist ref.idx *** Session transcript and error messages are in /home/gri6507/src/rpm/ BUILD/sage-2.9/devel/doc-main/paper-letter/ref.how. *** Exited with status 1.
