Wasn't a compiler problem. I built gcc 4.6.3 at my home directory and rebuilt sage. The problem persisted.
The problem is very similar to what Dmitrii described here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!msg/sage-devel/Gj3cbdcPqKo/ROV39CTFbI4J The problem is that my home directory is: /files3/home/sahosse/ but I only have execution permission to the directory "home": [sahosse@msx0 ~]$ ls -ld /files3/home drwx--x--x 192 root msstaff 4096 Feb 15 13:23 /files3/home [sahosse@msx0 ~]$ ls -l /files3/home ls: /files3/home: Permission denied Off course I have access to my home directory but (directory) function of ecl always return NIL as long as "home" appears in the path of the requested directory, which means it fails on my entire home directory: [sahosse@msx0 ~]$ ~/sage/local/bin/ecl ECL (Embeddable Common-Lisp) 11.1.1 (git:UNKNOWN) Copyright (C) 1984 Taiichi Yuasa and Masami Hagiya Copyright (C) 1993 Giuseppe Attardi Copyright (C) 2000 Juan J.

It seems to me a poor implementation of directory function that can not handle such a common permission situation. I do not know how to report bug to ecl, but if sb knows please do. It is easily reproducible and I checked and it persists in the latest stable (12.2.1). בתאריך יום שני, 5 במרס 2012 20:31:20 UTC-7, מאת Dima Pasechnik: > > Well, I don't see what goes wrong there (except that the compiler you > use is so outdated that surely Sage is not tested with it --- version > alone does not say this, as the same version on MacOSX is a different > beast).
