The real problem here is not anaconda, per se, but some code in the Sage build script that tests for a current version of libcurl. The version here is 7.60.0, but somehow it fails the test for version >= 7.22.0: [r-3.6.0] checking for curl-config... /Users/Emily/anaconda3/bin/curl-config > [r-3.6.0] checking libcurl version ... 7.60.0 > [r-3.6.0] checking curl/curl.h usability... yes > [r-3.6.0] checking curl/curl.h presence... yes > [r-3.6.0] checking for curl/curl.h... yes > [r-3.6.0] checking if libcurl is version 7 and >= 7.22.0... no > [r-3.6.0] configure: error: libcurl >= 7.22.0 library and headers are > required > [r-3.6.0] Error configuring R. I don't know if this is easy to fix, or if the code is somehow automatically generated. In an earlier post <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sage-release/1KPmMxoXyOA/0pvV_mxTDAAJ>, I noted that: > This only became a problem with sage-8.8.beta1 and sage-8.8.beta2.

By the way, why are we seeing Mac users compiling Sage for themselves rather than just downloading an executable? Is it anything to do with the double-clickable Mac application problem <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sage-devel/nlXP6cv4LAY/MKkqEDu8BwAJ>that appeared on Mac OSX 10.4 (Mojave)? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
