I've no idea why this is happening, although I was the one who created that
SPARC binary. I've moved it around on different systems, with different install
paths and not had a problem.
The documentation which says the latest version to build on Solaris is 4.3.0.1
is outdated (my fault). 4.3.4 does fully build on Solaris, and passes all the
tests - something that 4.3.0.1 never did.
I've just started to create a .lzma format file at:
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/sage-4.3.4-Solaris-sun4u-SunOS.tar.lzma
At the time of writing, this is not completed - lzma is a slow compression
method. But I would expect it would be done in another half hour or so.
Once the modification time of the file is some time in the past, I suggest you
download that. I'm not sure if the extension .lzma can be decompressed with the
'7za / p7zip' program on Solaris. You might find if you rename the .lzma to .7z
it will work. (If not, you will need to build the lzma program to decompress
it). I would have created it on a Sun SPARC using 'p7zip', but the Sun SPARC at
the University of Washington is ill suited for Sage developement and will take
hours to compress that file. So I moved it to a Linux box and used lzma
compression. I think the compression methods are the same.
If all else fails, you can download a tar file:
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/sage-4.3.4-Solaris-sun4u-SunOS.tar
but at 1.6 GB, it is much larger than the .lzma format file will be, which will
be around 300 MB once it is compressed.
