I've now changed them to be the very latest versions (at least they were when I last checked < 24 hours ago). http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/Solaris-fixes/maxima-5.19.1/ http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/Solaris-fixes/ecl-9.8.4/ I've created a number of trac tickets for various issues. Adam has sorted a lot of them out. There are still some Solaris-specific issues to resolve, but I think all except one issue has been resolved for linux systems. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
