I'm running OS X Yosemite on a 2013 Macbook Pro, and I've tried installing gap 4.7.8 in two ways:
1. I downloaded the gap4r7p8_2015_06_09-20_27.tar file from here: http://www.gap-system.org/Releases/index.html Then I unpacked it, and in the resulting gap4r7 directory I entered "./configure; make" The configure seemed to go through without trouble. Make however ended in...: ... x gmp-5.0.5/tune/x86_64.asm x gmp-5.0.5/version.c x gmp-5.0.5/ylwrap Configuring GMP. Logging to bin/x86_64-apple-darwin14.1.0-gcc-default64/extern/gmp-5.0.5/build_log.

I've installed XCode, which seems to already be packaged with the apple command line tools. 2. I tried using BOB, following the directions here: http://gap-system.github.io/bob/#downloadtab including installing MacPorts and entering "sudo port install readline +universal ncurses +universal gawk wget xorg-libX11 xorg-libXaw" in the terminal. That seemed to go through fine, until I actually open Bob, at which point I get the error message in the terminal: Working on component GAP ...

Any ideas? _______________________________________________ Forum mailing list Forum@mail.gap-system.org http://mail.gap-system.org/mailman/listinfo/forum
