Comment:
The following is quite strange:
{{{
Configuring FLINT.
Configuring...x86_64-Linux
Testing __builtin_popcountl...yes
Testing native popcount..../configure : ligne 315 : 8361 Instruction non
permise build/test-popcnt > /dev/null 2>&1
no
Building FLINT shared library.
}}}
The configure script *dies*, but the result is still zero, so spkg-install
still starts to compile!
Notice that the death of the configure script is present in upstream's 2.3
and today's git checkout, so it's not sage-specific.
I have tried to get more information about it : on x86_64, compiling with
-mpopcnt works, but running the resulting test file raises an illegal
instruction... which kills the configure script without error (!).
I still haven't reported upstream because I saw the problem while testing
the spkg in this report. You'll have to actually look at your
spkg/logs/flint-2.3.p0.log to see the problem, because the package
compiles perfectly.
