Comment(by drkirkby):

 #9351, which has positive review, makes Sagetex dependant on both gap and
 Sage, since you need a working Sage in order that Sagetex can be tested
 with SAGE_CHECK=yes. So the 'deps' file attached to this ticket would need
 that dependency updating.

 I've printed this on paper and looked though it fairly carefully, and
 can't see anything wrong with it. Everything looks logical to me. On a few
 occasions where things only depended on 'BASE', but I was slightly
 suspicious they might have other dependencies, I checked the packages more
 carefully by inspection of their contents. I can't see anything wrong.

 I've used this 'deps' file to build Sage on my !OpenSolaris machine, and
 found the 'deps' file appears OK, though since neither R or Maxima build
 on !OpenSolaris, I'm unable to test this 'deps' file fully on
 !OpenSolaris. Since you have a specific issue with Maxima, I can't provide
 convincing evidence this is OK. But it looks OK to me.

 I would never be totally surprised by any failures of builds on the
 *.math.washington.edu network if an NFS-shared directory is used for
 building Sage - which includes the home directories. Most of the hard
 disks are attached to a server called 'disk.math.washington.edu' which is
 running !OpenSolaris. But the ZFS intent Log (ZIL) has been disabled to
 increase NFS speed. This means that if you write something to disk, then
 try to read it, there is no guarantee it can be read. Hence (on t2), the
 system log shows things like

 {{{

 disk][Mntpt: /home]NFS op OP_SETATTR got error NFS4ERR_DELAY causing

 Jun 30 19:06:03 t2  Action: NR_STALE

 }}}

 So if you get strange behavior, I would try it on a scratch area, with
 local storage, since I would not 100% trust the way the ZFS pools are
 configured.
