This is related to a problem compiling the PARI component of SAGE
on a Debian box.   Evidently it uses the "-rpath" option somewhere,
which breaks things on Debian (see below for more about the problem).

We *definitely* would want to modify the PARI build so it works on a Debian
system out of the box.  My goal with SAGE is that it builds on a wide range
of Linux systems out of the box.

I personally can't look at this right now, since I'm quite busy.

William,

I've translated the message below and will contact Henning tomorrow to  
resolve
this.

Hello,

as I have no clue, I send you the install.log...

"Dank und Grüße",

          Henning Siebel


ps: Why isn't it possible to skip the compilation of already installed
packages and use those?
