> Try spkg at:

>
> You'll have to rebuild cython and the Sage library if installing this on
> top of a previous Sage install.
>
> You will also have to rebuild a custom gdb linked to a debug version of
> Python if you plan on using gdb.

New description:

 Instructions for getting a debug version of Python:

 * Download and untar sage-5.6.beta1
 * Copy the Cython spkg from #13832 to spkg/standard
 * Copy the Python spkg from #13867 to spkg/standard
 * Copy the Singular spkg from #13876 to spkg/standard
 * Run
   {{{
 export SAGE_DEBUG=yes
 make
   }}}
   and wait. At the end, Sage will die in a SIGABRT during "Testing
 startup"
 * Apply the patch from #13868 to the Sage library
 * Run `sage -br`

 This gives you a Sage version that starts up, but some doctests segfault.
 Probably because we just found some bugs ;-)

Comment:

 I'm making this into a meta-ticket to collect information to build a
 Python debug version.
