Yes. The whole problem is due to the Aldor Public License 2. :-( That's
the only reason why there are two packages. The fricas spkg is mBSD and
the fricasaldor spkg is APL2.
The other problem is that Sage does not provide a proper mechanism to deal
with dependencies. (People should look at "zc.buildout".)
It's all not so easy since currently fricasaldor needs the build directory
of the build of the fricas package. It basically copies copies some files
into this directory and then starts the build.
So saying
{{{
sage -i fricas-X.Y.Z
sage -i fricasaldor-X.Y.Z
}}}
will not work, because the build directory of fricas is gone. I guess that
might be the problem with your error.
The other thing is
> {{{
> ****************************************************
> Installing -s fricas-1.0.9
> Calling sage-spkg on fricas-1.0.9
> Warning: Attempted to overwrite SAGE_ROOT environment variable
> }}}
Do you have an idea who is printing that warning?
