Hi I did try to compile Sage6.3 in Open Suse 12.3 32 bits, but it failed. The same Sage6.3 did work in Lubuntu 14.04, also 32 bits, by the a way, both in Oracle virtual box.
The error messages I've got are bellow. I hope you can either fix it and, eventually make Sage available at openSuse repository. Thank you, and I hope it helps to advance in this project. sageUser@linux-eob7:~/bin/Sage/sage-6.3> make cd build && \ "../build/pipestatus" \ "env SAGE_PARALLEL_SPKG_BUILD='' ./install all 2>&1" \
