So potentially anyone building from source is an untypical user? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. Optional, but highly recommended: Test the install by typing ./sage --testall. This runs most examples in the source code and makes sure that they run exactly as claimed. To test all examples, use ./sage --testall --optional=all --long; this will run examples that take a long time, and those that depend on optional packages and software, e.g., Mathematica or Magma. Some (optional) examples will therefore likely fail. Alternatively, from within $SAGE_ROOT, you can type make test (respectively make ptest) to run all the standard test code serially (respectively in parallel). Testing the Sage library can take from half an hour to several hours, depending on your hardware. On slow hardware building and testing Sage can even take several days! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (Excerpt from [1].) -leif [1] http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/source.html#general-procedure -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
