Comment(by hemmecke):

 Replying to [comment:37 awebb]:
 > Thanks for the packages. I guess it is mentioned somewhere that
 installing fricasaldor depends on the source of fricas. This means that
 the following is needed:
 > {{{
 > sage -i -s fricas-1.0.9.spkg
 > sage -i fricasaldor-1.0.9.spkg
 > }}}

 That is '''not''' so! As explained
 [http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6517#comment:17 above], the
 commands are simply:

 {{{
 cp fricas-aldor-spkg/spkg/fricas*.spkg  $SAGE_ROOT/spkg/optional
 sage -i fricasaldor-X.Y.Z
 }}}

 Dependency is included in the package fricasaldor.

 Yes that seems to be an ecl problem and I have no idea how to track that.
 So unfortunately, I cannot fix it. I think the link to Aldor is not as
 stable as it should be. There might also be a problem on 64bit machines
 with respect to internal hash codes. But since the Aldor sources are not
 free, it's up to a person who agrees with the Aldor Public License 2.0 to
 sync with FriCAS.
