Re: [sage-devel] configure problem
Thanks for the quick replies. I switched to the master branch and there bootstrap+configure worked. I suggest that the report by configure was not sufficiently helpful or informative. Should it not wither mark gcc as something necessary to be installed, or tell me that it cannot me? I know that this system needs an OS upgrade, and will see about doing that, though it has a lot of users (and long-running jobs) and is hard to get physical access to, so doing an O/S upgrade via remote login is not a very relaxing experience.

Re: [sage-devel] configure problem
https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/33316 that’s what happened. Support for gcc lower than 6.3 removed.

[sage-devel] configure problem
On a machine (Ubuntu 16.04.7 LTS) on which I have done a lot of Sage development before, and successfully built sage from source, from scratch, just a month ago (May 17 when 9.6 was released) with no problems. Now, I made a new clone of the source using git clone https://github.com/sagemath/sage.git cd sage then ran ./bootstrap and then ./configure but configure gave some error messages. In the long list, I see gcc-11.3.0: no suitable system package; this is an error and at the end: configure: error: Given --with-system-gcc=force, but no system package could be used. That's an error. Please install the indicated package to continue. (To override this error, use ./configure --without-system-gcc) Now this system certainly has a working gcc, it is gcc version 5.4.0 20160609 (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.12) Also, So, what has changed since then?
