Comment (by jdemeyer):
Replying to [comment:6 kcrisman]:
> So Sage compiles with Sun compilers on Solaris now because we build and
use GCC?
Exactly. It's even tested on the buildbot (on i386 !OpenSolaris at
least).
> I understand that the `v` flag for untarring is optional, but if you
remove that flag, then you should probably tell the user how long they
should expect to wait for Sage to untar. It takes a '''long''' time (I've
done this with a student on a couple occasions and we weren't sure if the
connection had timed out!), and I would expect that some of the spkgs
inside Sage likewise take at least more than a couple minutes to untar - ?
Fair enough, I added back that flag.
