Re: [sage-support] Sage on Mavericks requesting installation of X

Yes. I reinstalled the same version of XQuartz as I had before, but it was 
the first such reinstall since upgrading to Mavericks.

Was this the first time you re-installed KQuartz after installing Mavericks?

Apple requires such a thing with every new major OS X upgrade, I do believe.

The simplest approach, perhaps, is to install the X11 package by following the 
instructions in the dialog (and subsequent KB article).

Otherwise, you would have to determine the code that is invoking the X11 
library.  Some programs, like 'gs', come with X11 and non-X11 versions ('gs' is 
a link to one or the other); others have command-line arguments that disable 
X11 for the current execution.  That's as far as I've gotten.

One approach to the latter would be to move/rename '/usr/X11/', and see what 
breaks when you run sage.

If you built from source, the build logs might help track down who's using X11.

I read that dialog as saying that X11 is supported. It literally says:
"Apple continues to support the development of X11 on OS X..."

Still a very good question!

[sage-support] Sage on Mavericks requesting installation of X

2013-10-28 Thread Ed Scheinerman
I have just upgraded my Mac to OS X version 10.9 "Mavericks" and am running 
Sage version 5.12. When I start sage from the command line an dialogue box 
opens asking me about opening Xquartz and that X11 is no longer supported 
etc. (See attached image.) I can dismiss past this dialogue box and all 
works fine. I have XQuartz installed and I get this error whether or not I 
already have Xquartz running. 

Anything I should do to make this annoyance stop?
