Sage 4.1.alpha2 has been released, find it at http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/boothby/releases
As with 4.1.alpha1, there are two known doctest failures. One is very simple to fix, and the other might be tricky. I made an attempt at solving them, but William claims that my fix will break osx10.4. I'd appreciate it if somebody could take a look at this. http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6427 Also, popen has been deprecated. We're getting warnings in a few places, and this should be resolved before sage-4.1 is released. Robert Miller is taking over, and the plan is to have him close #6196 [with patch, positive review] mpmath support #6276 [with patch; positive review] atlas-3.8.3.p2 dumps core on Solaris 10 with gcc 4.4.0 #5517 [with patch; positive review] cvxopt-0.9.p7: build failure due to missing perl modules #5854 [with patch, with spkg, with positive review] Include Michael Stoll's ratpoints in Sage #5866 [with patch, positive review] Fix freetype build on systems where make is not GNU make. #5867 [with patch, positive review] Fix gd build on FreeBSD #5868 [with patch, positive review] Fix libgcrypt shared library name on FreeBSD #5869 [with patch, positive review] Fix libgpg-error shared library name on FreeBSD #5870 [with patch, positive review] Detect blas and atlas libraries for linbox on FreeBSD #5872 [with patch, positive review] Explicitly pass -fPIC into ntl shared object build. #5874 [with patch, positive review] Fix readline build on FreeBSD #5875 [with patch, positive review] Support tachyon on FreeBSD #6281 [with patch; positive review] enable parallel make for rubiks spkg #6302 [with patch; positive review] make openopt an optional spkg #6380 [with patch, positive review] Allow NTL to build on Solaris with Sun or GNU linker which all involve upgrading spkgs. That'll be rc0, at which point we'll feature-freeze and focus on fixing bugs. --tom --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
