hello, sage just told me to post here. I've tried to "sage -i gap_packages-4.5.7" and got the following message:

Instead, the following commands setup all environment variables correctly and load a subshell for you to debug the error: (cd '/Applications/sage/spkg/build/gap_packages-4.5.7' && '/ Applications/sage/sage' -sh) When you are done debugging, you can type "exit" to leave the subshell. ************************************************************************ I'm worried by one particular thing: my version of sage is 5.5 and i've downloaded binaries called sage-5.5-OSX-64bit-10.6-x86_64-Darwin.dmg the other choice was sage-5.5-OSX-64bit-10.8-x86_64-Darwin.dmg but my osx is really neither 10.6 or 10.8, but 10.7.2 ! in the message above one reads Target: x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0 and it may be the cause of the problem. shall i try to compile sage from source? thanks!
