WTF? Flooding the terminal such that the messages get even less readable
(if more than one package failed to build at least, and not necessarily in
this attempt).
Why not first inspect `$SAGE_BUILD_DIR` (if set, `$SAGE_ROOT/spkg/build/`
otherwise) unless `$SAGE_KEEP_BUILT_SPKGS=yes`?
If `$SAGE_PARALLEL_SPKG_BUILD!=yes`, the error should be obvious from
previous messages, so I'd change the behaviour in that case.
IMHO we should really print ''a list'' of the spkgs that ''may'' have
failed to build, along with the locations of their logs and build dirs
(taking into account `$SAGE_BUILD_DIR`).
To only check recent logs, we should use `find ... -newer
"$SAGE_ROOT/.BUILDSTART" ...` for the files to grep. (We could in
addition check whether `$SAGE_BUILD_DIR/package` is present, which should
always be the case unless ''the extraction'' of the spkg failed.)
----
`tail -n ...` of course works on Solaris; you just have to use the right
one (`/usr/xpg4/bin/tail`). ;-)
