Replying to [comment:59 jhpalmieri]:
> Two quick comments: both Dima's and Dave's packages seem to contain a
file {{{.SPKG.txt.swp}}}, which should not be there.
Well spotted.
> Also, I can't build these on the skynet machine mark (sparc solaris),
but I can if (following Dave's suggestion), I comment out these lines in
spkg-install:

> cp -p patches/cvxopt.h src/src/C/

It's odd, since if I comment those lines out on !OpenSolaris, it fails to
build:
{{{

I think Dima's package
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/dima/packages/cvxopt-1.1.2.p1.spkg
has a syntax error in the patch, so that will fail on Solaris. But my own
package
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/patches/cvxopt-1.1.2.spkg
lacks that syntax error. But it seems to be necessary to add patches on
some version of Solaris and messes up the build on another.
> I haven't tried building on t2 with this modification.
Do not be too surprised if you need to change it again!
I will need to double-check if the old version of cvxopt was building on
!OpenSolaris. I think it was, but #9525 shows that the package would
report it had built, even if it failed.
I've deleted my older builds on !OpenSolaris but since I use a ZFS file
system, with snapshots enabled every 15 minutes, so I can easily get back
to an older build. Or I could just rebuild an older Sage on here, as it
takes less than half an hour. I do need to check what's happening here.
Unfortunately, the last few weeks I seem to be spending a lot of time
trying to test things on Solaris for people. I've been involved in the
cvxopt, Pari, Singular and some other package updates.
