Comment(by nbruin):
In the above transcript, the fact that (require 'maxima) fails indeed
indicates that the install failed. The other attempts to load maxima fail
because the library "maxima.fas" now gets installed in a different place.
If you take a look at the patch that was made to spkg-install,
you can see that the four lines added can't possibly lead to
maxima failing so badly. One guess I can make is that I packaged the spkg
in the wrong way (I actually followed the instructions in spkg-dist!). The
resulting spkg is quite a bit smaller than "p0" that Ghitza provided, so
perhaps maxima automake files got deleted by that script?
To test this hypothesis:
- Unpack the original maxima spkg (or install with -s)
- apply the attached patch, or paste in the relevant lines into spkg-
install
- install again
If that works, then one should probably just repackage the spkg.
Otherwise, I don't know what the problem is.
