I of course meant the linker error.

Nice. A trivial work-around, if you simply want to compile Sage/PARI
'''without''' FLTK is:
{{{
export PARI_EXTRA_OPTS="--with-fltk=no"
}}}
(This will complain that the directory {{{.../no}}} does not exist, but
proceed building without FLTK.)

I don't have an account on sage.math, so I could only put it into the
volatile ftp directory. (But someone else could move it.)
Applying patches to spkgs is relatively simple. If you have Mercurial
({{{hg}}}) installed:
{{{
#!sh
$ tar xjf /path/to/pari-2.3.5.p2.spkg
$ mv pari-2.3.5.p2 pari-2.3.5.p3
$ cd pari-2.3.5.p3
$ hg import /path/to/spkg-patch.patch # replace with appropriate filename
$ cd ..
$ tar cjf pari-2.3.5.p3.spkg pari-2.3.5.p3
}}}
Then you can install the new spkg the usual way ({{{./sage -i ...}}}, but
perhaps first copy it over to {{{$SAGE_ROOT/spkg/standard}}} to get around
limitations of {{{sage-spkg}}}, and then type {{{./sage -i
pari-2.3.5.p3}}}).
> > It does ''not'' fix the first error, i.e. PARI attempting to use FLTK
despite no headers being present, since I currently cannot reproduce that.
I could perhaps fix that later though.)
> Since all the machines are the same, it should also fix the first error,
since this is obviously the default state of the machines,
Ok, I've read this too late...
Wouldn't be bad then to install {{{libfltk-dev}}} on ''all'' machines...
(I would assume the machines get configured/installed from a central
server anyway.)
