I found the rubiks package would not build on Solaris with the Sun
compiler. After looking at it, this seems to be one of the worst
packages I've ever seen. It's a miracle it worked on any platform.
* g++ was hard coded
* SAGE64 was not used at all.
* CFLAGS was set when really it should have been CXXFLAGS
* A compiler option was used to attempt to suppress assembler warnings.
* CC was set to g++
The list goes on. Anyway, I believe I have sorted out all the issues
with rubiks.
The revised .spkg has been tested on
* 32-bit Solaris SPARC with gcc
* 64-bit Solaris SPARC with gcc
* 32-bit Solaris SPARC with Sun compiler
* 64-bit Solaris SPARC with Sun compiler
* Sage.math - I think the default is 64-bit there.
* 32-bit on bsd.math with gcc
* 64-bit on bsd.math with gcc
