Dear All,

Building Fricas 1.1.4 on a Mac Pro appears straightforward:

unpack fricas-1.1.4-full.tar.bz2 (just double click if lazy :) )

***********************************************************************************************
***********************************************************************************************
cd ~/fricas-1.1.4
# an sbcl which works is SBCL 1.0.29.54.rc1 and on my machine it is in /usr/local/bin, # and, since I have another sbcl elsewhere which doesn't work, it is necessary to be specific so:
./configure --with-lisp=/usr/local/bin/sbcl
# a quad-core Intel Xeon has hyperthreading which means each core appears
# to software as 2 virtual cores, so the number of processors can be set to 8. # (note that I checked, using Activity Monitor, and -j4 does not fully extend the quad-core Xeon).
gmake -j8
# all cores run for the first part of the build
su
make install
exit

Note that gmp is not used - I can't seem to get it compiled on my machine; anyone have any clues?
