M2 spkg in Sage is so old (ver 1.1, as opposed to just released 1.6: https://github.com/Macaulay2/M2/tree/release-1.6) that it's better to completely remove it from the repo... Just in case, I tried building version 1.6 inside the Sage 5.9 shell, and it didn't work due to some GMP

sage-on-gentoo folks have Macaulay2-1.6 working with sage-5.9 fine. So i wonder why compilation fails inside sage-5.9. On 20 mayo, 11:06, Dima Pasechnik dimp...@gmail.com wrote: M2 spkg in Sage is so old (ver 1.1, as opposed to just released

Macaulay2 in Fedora also works perfectly fine with Sage. Its just that the M2 spkg has bitrotted to the point where its useless. And Macaulay2 has a long list of dependencies that we don't carry, so its not just a case of packaging a newer release. On Monday, May 20, 2013 2:29:42 PM UTC+1,

So, should we remove the M2 package? I think it is definitely better to not have it, and let the user install his own copy of M2, than to have a package that does not work. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sage-devel group. To unsubscribe from this

Hell !! So, should we remove the M2 package? I think it is definitely better to not have it, and let the user install his own copy of M2, than to have a package that does not work. I totally agree with that. We had an argument about the Graphviz spkg on #13624 about the very same

Hi William, I tried to fix the bug and provided a patch at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/attachment/ticket/14587/ However, I cannot test it as the M2 experimental package won't build (on my machine). On Tuesday 14 May 2013, William Stein wrote: Hi, I actually tried to use
