Hello,

There are few issues with the packages compiling in 64bit mode; your GMP 
required by GCC will not compile as 64 bit binary and this impacts 
compilation for some of the SAGE packages; its best to compile a 32 bit 
binary (SAGE64=no)

Then second item is to insure you are using at least GCC 4.1.x or greater; 
compiled with gmp, mpfr and mpc; sage 6.0 uses slightly older version but 
this is still fine. Next Binutils shouls be at 2.24 for GNU ASSEMBLER (AS) 
tools and your Linkder (PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH) should be set to the Sun 
LD is used.

Now on solaris x86/Sparc 10/11 there are a few package issues related to 
the operating system but there do exist some fixes and others that I am 
following up on.

ATLAS, gf2x and givaro - most other packages should compile fine.

You many need to update the configuration code for ATLAS before you do a 
build - see my comment in Error installing package atlast-3.10.1.p7 on 
OpenSUSE 
13.1<https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/sage-support/oC-O3pIaJuY>; 
for gf2x you need to update the spkg-install script so when configure gets 
called it forces sse vs sse2 on Solaris; your arch should be set to 
x86_nosse2; once these two packages are fixed most of the others will build 
fine.

Givaro on the otherhand has an issue with the Sun LD; but GNU LD also give 
a different error so I suspect there is an OS bug somewhere.

WE are using Solaris x86 and SPARC 10 currently but have not upgraded to 
Solaris 11 yet.

Good Luck.
