I tried that but the modified 'clisp-2.41.p11.spkg' does not build apparently because the src directory does not contain everything necessary to build ffi. > We should do that during the update to 2.43. Any volunteers? > Well, so far I can confirm only that the following modified spkg: http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/page/clisp-2.43-alpha.spkg which is based on clisp-2.43 as distributed by the clisp project, installs in Sage running on sage.math and it can re-build (-f ...) maxima-5.13.0.p1, axiom4sage-0.3.1 and the full version of FriCAS (rev: 134). I did only a fairly mimimal change to 'clisp-2.43-alpha.spkg' to eliminate all patches and adapt to the slightly changed build process (no intermediate makemake step necessary). FFI is automatically included. It it quite possible that this version may not build on OSX etc. however I know that the clisp developers have made some significant improvements in the build since 2.41. I would be glad in anyone can try this 'clisp-2.43-alpha.spkg' and let me know what works and what doesn't. Also please feel free to take the above and run with it. ;-) Regards, Bill Page. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
