If yes, it looks as if you are hitting a bug (of sorts) described here: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-20619 (symptom: "/usr/bin/ranlib: archive member: libbackend.a(ude) size too large") Basically, a static library cannot be bigger that 4GB on your toolchain. A workaround is to not to build "universal" libraries, i.. anything that works on 32 as well as on 64 bit (i.e x86 and x86_64) systems. I cc to sage-devel. Let's continue talking there. > Am Samstag, 28.
