Hi folks, So far in the 4.1.1 release cycle, David Kirkby has added Solaris (on the machine t2) build support for about 7 packages. That is very impressive work for an individual porter. Out of curiosity, I compiled Sage 4.1.1.alpha1 from source on t2. Now the compilation dies at the point where the SPKG sage-4.1.1.alpha1 was being compiled. I may be wrong here, but the context is that that SPKG tries to link to the NTL library and the specific error is in building "c_lib". But don't take my words for it. The full log is up at
http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mvngu/patch/install-solaris.log.bz2 and here's a relevant snippet: CC: Warning: Option -fPIC passed to ld, if ld is invoked, ignored otherwise "src/ZZ_pylong.cpp", line 47: Error: "ZZ_set_pylong(NTL::ZZ&, _object*)" is expected to return a value. 1 Error(s) detected. scons: *** [src/so_ZZ_pylong.o] Error 1 *** TOUCHING ALL CYTHON (.pyx) FILES *** /opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC -o src/so_ZZ_pylong.o -c -KPIC -fPIC -I/scratch/mvngu/sage-4.1.1.alpha1/local/include -I/scratch/mvngu/sage-4.1.1.alpha1/local/include/python2.6 -I/scratch/mvngu/sage-4.1.1.alpha1/local/include/NTL -Iinclude src/ZZ_pylong.cpp CC: Warning: Option -fPIC passed to ld, if ld is invoked, ignored otherwise "src/ZZ_pylong.cpp", line 47: Error: "ZZ_set_pylong(NTL::ZZ&, _object*)" is expected to return a value. 1 Error(s) detected. scons: *** [src/so_ZZ_pylong.o] Error 1 ---------------------------------------------------------- sage: Building and installing modified Sage library files.
