{{{
[04:23am] mabshoff|zzzz: craigcitro, mhansen: the problem is that we
cleanup up which flags to consider.
[04:24am] mhansen: I don't understand why this should affect a build from
source.
[04:36am] gabkdlly joined the chat room.
[04:53am] mabshoff|zzzz: on sage.math it is likely an upgrade.
[04:53am] mabshoff|zzzz: So the flags file with the old flags already
existed.
[04:54am] mabshoff|zzzz: I am not sure it is worth working around that
since the
problem only happens when upgrading from 3.2, so in a couple releases this
will
become a non-issue.
[04:54am] mhansen: I got this on my own box too.
[04:56am] gabkdlly left the chat room. ("Leaving.")
[05:00am] mabshoff|zzzz: Did you upgrade?
[05:01am] mhansen: Yes
[05:01am] mabshoff|zz:
[05:01am] mabshoff|zz: delete $SAGE_LOCAL/lib/sage-flags.txt and the
problem is gone
[05:02am] mhansen: Yes, I know. I fixed it on my box and sage.math.
[05:02am] mabshoff|zz: thanks
[05:02am] mabshoff|zz: It is an annoyance and I think we shouldn't add a
workaround to the detection code.
[05:03am] mabshoff|zz: The people who can upgrade will be able to fix it
themselves, but we might want to add an FAQ entry
[05:03am] mabshoff|zz: Going back to catch a few more z
[05:03am] mhansen: Or send a preemptive email to sage-devel.
[05:03am] mabshoff|zz: +1
[05:04am] mabshoff|zz: knock yourself out
[05:04am] mabshoff|zz: We might as well add a warning to the release
notes to "KNOWN ISSUES".
[05:04am] mhansen: Too busy with #3950
[05:04am] mabshoff|zz: I.e feel free to post a patch at #4646
[05:05am] mabshoff|zz: Ok, I will do it then.
