Sage is known to successfully build on the following Itanium platforms with GCC: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.3, IA-64 Itanium 2 @ 1.5GHz, GCC 4.4.2 * SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP1, IA-64, GCC 4.4.2 A list of all known platform/hardware combinations on which Sage 4.3 is known to successfully build is found on the Sage wiki [1]. > Is the Intel 10.1 compiler a must? No. Currently, the Intel C/C++/Fortran compilers are not required to build Sage. Other than GCC, I don't know of any other compiler that has been used to successfully build Sage. > If not, what does stop GAP 4.4.12 > then? GAP is a standard package which is distributed with every version of Sage. For any update to the GAP package, one needs to ensure that Sage together with the updated GAP package successfully compile on the compile farm. You could make the updated GAP package available online somewhere and ask people to test it out. [1] http://wiki.sagemath.org/devel/BuildFarm/sage-4.3 -- Regards Minh Van Nguyen
