On an old Mac (slightly newer than my usual test machine, but still OS X 10.4 PPC) iml bails out with complaining about not having ATLAS 3.0 or greater. These built Sage 6.4.beta6 fine (other than rpy2) so it must be something about this upgrade that changes it - I assume iml always asked for that, see for instance [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sage-forum/sHwJyMp7Wmo this nearly 8-year-old discussion]! Could it possibly be the removal of {{{ --with-atlas-include="`pwd`" --with-atlas-lib=/usr/lib }}} Reading http://web.mit.edu/sage/export/iml-1.0.2/config/atlas-check.m4 certainly seems to indicate so. Not sure why it would work on newer Macs; in general Even though in general we will have to drop easy support for that old of a machine because gcc 4.0.1 won't compile gcc 4.9.x (you'd think it would have made sense for gcc to number it 5.0 when they changed the language they wrote it in!), I do want to make one final binary for Sage 6.4.1 at least, so I would appreciate any assistance. We don't need a new ticket, I don't think, though I don't know if this would break other people's builds who want to use their own ATLAS to avoid compiling Sage's. - kcrisman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-release" group.
