I think that needs to be be SAGE_ATLAS_ARCH=Corei7,SSE3,SSE2,SSE1 (note the capitalization of the i). > Though GAP was preinstalled, the build ignored the installation and > generated its own (bare) version. I will try and link to the usual > version. Sage installs its own copy of most programs it uses, including Python, GAP, Pari/GP, Maxima, ECL, etc. - even bzip2 (because apparently we are attempting to even support platforms which don't have bzip2 installed). The Sage build ignored a local GAP installation intentionally. So be advised that it is quite adventurous to try to force Sage to use your system installations of these programs, though of course you're welcome to try :) > How might I add packages to Sage like ImageMagick? Just install them? ImageMagick in particular is not a program that Sage installs into its own directory (unlike the programs I listed above) so you can just install it on your system. Other programs, though, especially Python libraries, should be installed into the Sage distribution itself. If a program is provided by a SPKG (see http://sagemath.org/packages/ ), then you can do this with `sage -i <packagename>`. For miscellaneous Python libraries, use `easy_install` from inside a subshell launched with `sage --sh`. -Keshav ---- Join us in #sagemath on irc.freenode.net ! -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
