Firstly, I'm using a mac (mavericks), and I'm getting the small groups
package from:
http://www.icm.tu-bs.de/ag_algebra/software/small/#small
It downloads to a tar.gz file while unzips to a folder called "small".
I tried putting it in
"/Applications/Sage-6.1.1.app/Contents/Resources/sage/local/gap/latest/pkg/",
but after reloading gap it wouldn't recognize any of the support functions.
So instead I put it in "/Applications/Sage-6.1.1.app/Contents/Reso
urces/sage/local/gap/latest/".
However, upon reloading gap, I get a bunch of errors of the form
Syntax error: warning: unbound global variable in
/Applications/Sage-6.1.1.app/Contents/Reso\
urces/sage/local/gap/latest/small/small8/smlgp8.g line 94
op := DATA.ops[ p ];
each time referring to various files in the package. Have I installed it
incorrectly? If not, can I somehow suppress these warnings?
The funny thing is, even though it refers to the assignment of an unbound
global variable "op", when I try to check the value of "op" in gap, it says
it does not have a value.
P.S. This actually didn't use to happen. Yesterday, my setup is as far as I
know the same as it is today, however just an hour ago I accidentally hit
"ctrl + Z" as opposed to ctrl+C while calling a self-defined function that
wasn't terminating. After doing this, whenever I would use the "Read(...)"
function in gap on the file I had written, I would get a bunch of these
unbound global variable errors, despite never having gotten them before
(even though I was modifying global variables in the file). Upon reloading
gap, I suddenly found that I was also getting these errors for files within
the small groups package. Since then I've done a reinstallation of sage,
but I'm still getting the same errors. I've stopped the errors from reading
my own files by declaring some variables local, but I'm hesistant to
actually edit files in the small groups package myself.
thanks,
- will
