I tried to build sage-4.3.1.alpha2 in 32-bit mode on a Sun Blade 2000.
I've installed Sage on that several times before without issue. But this
time I get an error.
This is a bit annoying, as I really did believe that 4.3.1 would build
on Solaris 10 SPARC without any problems, after the issues with Sage
picking up the wrong compiler were finally resolved. The output below
shows this.
There is by the way a build in progress on 't2' at
/rootpool2/local/kirkby/sage-4.3.1.alpha2
however, since 't2' is not exactly fast, it has not yet reached the
point of failure. The last bit built as I write is matplotlib-0.99.1.p3.
The build on 't2' has now failed at the same point. This is now
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7932
which I marked as a blocker, as this new bug prevents Sage building on Solaris
10. Sun provided the T5240 free, and want to see Sage running on it. We can
produce a 4.3.1 which builds on Solaris 10, as all the bugs are resolved - until
a new one was introduced.
I've left the broken install on 't2' as well as a tar file which has the build.
I've made the permission on the build directory 777, so anyone can try this out,
though you would be wiser to do it on your own directory. But it's probably safe
to do it in my directory, if you can see nobody else is logged in.
(Don't worry about me. I'll not be touch it, as I have a copy on my home
machine, which is easier to work with).
