I downloaded the generic Singular package version 3.1.1.4 from the Singular website and attempted to compile it.
The make ran into a severe gcc-4.6 internal compiler error, so there is apparently a bug in the gcc version 4.6 compiler. I am going to assume (with good reason) that the gcc 4.6 compiler cannot build Singular under Sage either. I did try the "touch spkg/installed/$FOO.spkg" trick to fool Sage into thinking a package was installed, but this blows up when sage 4.7.1 is doing the final install with a missing dependencies error. It looks like Ubuntu Oneiric 11.10 is not yet ready for Sage production. Due to the compiler error, I consider this thread closed until a (much?) later date. So much for trying to be on the cutting edge, sometimes a person can get sliced and diced, as happened here to me. -- To post to this group, send an email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
