Unfortunately I no longer have access to *any* OS X 10.5 powerpc machines. I personally don't own any ppc machines, but I have access to three. The owners of all three of those machines recently upgraded them to 10.5. So the only way for Sage to provide 10.4 binaries is to either: (1) for me to buy a ppc os x machine and put 10.4 on it. Yuck. (2) for a user to volunteer to be the provider of os x 10.4 binaries. So who wants to volunteer to do (2)? All you have to do is install Sage from source; tar xvf sage-3.0 cd sage-3.0 make and this just requires that you have XCode installed (nothing else is required!). Note that XCode comes with your Mac on the DVD; or you can download it from the apple website. Once you build Sage, you should make sure it works: make check then make a binary: ./sage -bdist 3.0-osx10.4-ppc and you'll get a file SAGE_ROOT/dist/sage-3.0-osx10.4-ppc.dmg that you then make available to me somehow, so it can be put on the sagemath.org website. The above will take < 4GB disk space. -- William > > > > > Index of /SAGEbin/apple_osx/powerpc > Name Last modified Size > Description > > > Parent Directory - > README.txt 21-Jan-2008 20:31 53 > sage-2.11-osx10.4-ppc-PowerMacintosh-Darwin.dmg 30-Mar-2008 19:36 265M > sage-3.0-osx10.5-ppc-PowerMacintosh-Darwin.dmg 22-Apr-2008 06:23 225M > > Thank you, > Jim Clark > > > On Apr 23, 2008, at 4:58 AM, mabshoff wrote: > > Hello folks, > > > Sage 3.0 has been released on April 21st, 2008.
