I'm new to this group, so I'm not sure if I reply directly to you (as I am doing now). Please inform me if I should post this reply on the forum. The command that I used was simply the standard compile command "make" within the sage-x.y.z. directory. As per the instructions, all proper packages were loaded (latex, etc.) and the EXPORT commands for the fortran compiler were made.
Upon reflection, I think the first thing I should do rather than waste somebody's time further is to download the .tar file again and do an md5sum on the tarball files, which I should have done in the first place. Then when I recompile, if an error comes up, I'll be at least certain the original compressed files were not corrupted. -----Original Message----- From: sage-support@googlegroups.com [mailto:sage-support@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Keshav Kini Sent: Saturday, May 12, 2012 5:42 AM To: sage-support@googlegroups.com Subject: [sage-support] Re: I don't know how to handle this compilation error Richard Bentley <jurgen.manycolo...@gmail.com> writes: > The package seemed to compile, but at the end after running internal checks and cleaning up, it gave me the following message: > > make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/sage/sage-x.y.z./spkg' > /usr/local/sage/sage-x.y.z./spkg/pipestatus "sage-spkg ${SAGE_SPKG_OPTS} extcode-4.8 2>&1" "tee -a /usr/local/sage/sage-x.y.z./spkg/logs/extcode-4.8.log" > extcode-4.8 > Machine: > Linux jurgen-desktop 2.6.35-32-generic #68-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 27 18:07:17 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux > Deleting directories from past builds of previous/current versions of extcode-4.8 > Extracting package /usr/local/sage/sage-x.y.z./spkg/standard/extcode-4.8.spkg ... > -rw-r--r-- 1 richard richard 12186743 2012-01-19 22:43 /usr/local/sage/sage-x.y.z./spkg/standard/extcode-4.8.spkg > Finished extraction > There is no spkg-install script, no setup.py, and no configure script, > so I do not know how to install /usr/local/sage/sage-x.y.z./spkg/standard/extcode-4.8.spkg. > make[1]: *** [installed/extcode-4.8] Error 1 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/sage/sage-x.y.z./spkg' > > real 0m2.403s > user 0m1.620s > sys 0m0.110s > Error building Sage. Can you elaborate? What command were you running, and from what starting state? -Keshav ---- Join us in #sagemath on irc.freenode.net ! -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
