For the record, running tests with "sage -t devel/sage/sage" yields hundred(s) of failing files: http://wstein.org/home/wstein/tmp/test-sage-5.0.beta1-osx10.7.txt It could be that most of these boil down to some code at the core of PARI (the bezout function) being miscompiled. There is a discussion about this from August 2011 here: http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/archives/pari-dev-1108/msg00000.html It unfortunately appears based on the mailing list -- and searching through the ** 5 months ** since then -- that nothing at all was done to try to fix the problem, even though I had setup access to 10.7 for the Pari developers. Probably the main problem is that the machine I setup -- sqrt5.math.washington.edu -- is on the CS network, and for some reason it keeps getting kicked off. This really sucks. Maybe I can rewrite their bezout to get around the problem. -- William -- 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 URL: http://www.sagemath.org
