Thanks for your response. I found the same error when not setting SAGE64=yes. I noticed I got this message higher in the install log: Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules: bsddb185 dl gdbm imageop linuxaudiodev ossaudiodev spwd sunaudiodev
would it be related to python not finding the math module?
