There is a post-install script that runs sage once as root to fix the paths. root# dpkg-reconfigure sagemath-upstream-binary does not reproduce your problem, which confused me. However, user$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure sagemath-upstream-binary does reproduce it, so I think that my run-once-as-root is run as root but in the SUDOUSER /home directory! I guess maybe $HOME is wrong in this case. However, there are two possible solutions: 1) run the sage-change-paths command directly with an argument /root/.sage (how?) 2) because I symlink (instead of copying and editing SAGE_ROOT) /usr/bin/sage -> /usr/lib/sage/sage it might not be necessary at all to run the sage-change-paths command?

What I have done is (this happens every time): 1. Remove $HOME/.sage 2. Reinstall Sage from PPA 3. New $HOME/.sage is root-owned. If I have an existing $HOME/.sage owned by the user, I get a root-owned file when reinstalling the PPA package: the "lazy_import_cache.pickle" file. > An update on the previous dpkg version problem.

Are the steps to reproduce 1) install new OS, 2) install Sage from PPA, 3) run sage as user? I had previous .sage directories and the 64bit install on precise did not cause this problem. I now moved my .sage out the way and ran sage, and .sage was not created with root permissions. I then removed my .sage, aptitude reinstall sagemath-upstream-binary, ran sage, but am not able to reproduce this problem. I can't really think how the deb could cause this, but will try reproduce on a fresh OS install in a VM in a week or two. An update on the previous dpkg version problem. I have dropped lucid support on that PPA, as it is the only Ubuntu version requiring an older dpkg, and that older dpkg does not support xz compression. The difference between xz compression and gz compression is roughly 80M for the deb alone. dpkg 1.15.6 started supporting this. I did however add 32bit and changed to supporting natty, oneiric, and precise. The 32bit is really compiled for i686 (not i386 as expected by debhelper) so I had to disable stripping the binary, so the 32bit deb package is 70M larger than the 64bit deb package. The latter is around 370M. The unpacked space usage is 1.6G. Anyway, the from-upstream-binary (that is the compiled binaries for Ubuntu 10.04.3 from sagemath.org) was just a hack to get something out quickly, I would like to move efforts on to a from-source PPA soon. I will however fix bugs as I can. The PPA has reached its 2G space limit on launchpad. I asked for more space on 6th March: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/189847 The project is pretty much standing still until that space problem is sorted out.

Re: [sage-devel] Building a deb for sage on Debian/Ubuntu
Hi Dan, I want to focus on newer, and from-source, but until Friday I am only working on this from-binary. I want to add i686 today, and fix any bugs I may find. I will perhaps also try add a bug-reporting mailing list to the PPA page, it seems launchpad can host them. I may be back more often asking for help on sage-devel though! I guess that dpkg dependency is because I built the deb on precise, and there is a mechanism for Copying packages to save resources, where they do not need rebuilding. I will look into it -- thanks for testing and reporting.

Re: [sage-devel] Building a deb for sage on Debian/Ubuntu
Hi The deb available below was not built from source on launchpad, instead it is the sage upstream binary built for Ubuntu 10.04.3 hammered into a PPA for lucid, maverick natty, oneiric, and precise in the ugliest possible way. It is only 64bit at the moment. To test it do this: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:aims/sagemath sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sagemath-upstream-binary If you have sage in /usr/local/bin/sage, that is most likely in your path BEFORE /usr/bin/sage where this PPA will install it. Known bug: Dragging the icon from the dash to the launcher in precise works except the icon does not show in he launcher, just a transparent square shows (the icon does show in the dash though). I learnt a bit about packaging, and will continue to try to make a from-source package in this PPA.

Yes, definitely. I remember once in 2006 that an undergrad at UW -- Bobby Moretti -- made a PPA with Sage on Ubuntu, which built from source. I think he did it in a "24 hour sprint". He added some fake "./configure" and "make install" stuff to Sage so that this would work.

This binary via a deb needed openssl0.9.8 (openssl1.0.0 is default on Ubuntu 12.04) and now seems to work!

I am making two packages A deb from source, which will compile as some build user on launchpad build farms. People can then install this from our PPA. I think this aids Sage adoption.

So unlike above, it is changed to root during the move, and sage-location will have to run as root. It is important for deb whether this postinst step (running sage-location) will create NEW files, as if it does, I have to remove them during package removal with a postrm script. As far as I can see there are 4200+ pyc files in lib/local/python, but I guess those are all created during make or sage-location, and running it again will only replace existing files.

Re: [sage-devel] Building a deb for sage on Debian/Ubuntu
I am not sure how your packaging works. Do you install into some temporary directory first and then tar/bzip the resulting directory? Then, if the user changes the directory in which (s)he installs Sage (and this will obviously happen), then it will need to be run as root once. Also see this ticket which might be relevant for you if you are using the "make install" command: http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/12347 On Sunday, February 26, 2012 11:59:48 PM UTC+8, Jan Groenewald wrote: > > Hi > > Is it still necessary to run sage as root once to set some paths? > > When one does that, will it create new files?

As a first step to getting packaging skills and having a deb for people to install, I could try make a virtual debian package that contains the sage prebuilt, and untars it, sets permissions, and sets the SAGE_ROOT in the launch script.

If you could link to the whole maxima build log (in skpg/log) that would be most useful.

[sage-devel] Building a deb for sage on Debian/Ubuntu
Hi I am looking for a Debian or Ubuntu packaging mentor. I am not an experienced debian packager, I am learning everything from scratch. But I am an experienced system administrator. I am hoping to find a mentor familiar with both Debian/Ubuntu and sage to assist me. I am trying to build a deb package for sage. I am doing this on launchpad for Ubuntu using http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/packaging-new-software.html I would not mind getting Sage into Debian first, but found the Ubuntu documentation more accessible and am an Ubuntu user. I am NOT trying to debianize sage fully -- i.e. I do not want to have sage depend on debian/ubuntu versions of all the spkg'es, my goal is just to make Sage easy to install on Ubuntu through a personal package archive, including all sage versions of spkg'es. I have succesfully built sage-4.8 on Ubuntu 12.04 (yes, the development version). However, when running debuild, maxima fails to build: l,-z,relro -L/home/jan/sage-4.8/sagemath/local/lib -Wl,--rpath,/home/jan/sage-4.8/sagemath/local/lib -L/home/jan/sage-4.8/sagemath/local/lib -lecl -lgmp -lgc -ldl -lm make[4]: *** [binary-ecl/maxima] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/jan/sage-4.8/sagemath/spkg/build/maxima-5.23.2.p3/src/src' make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/jan/sage-4.8/sagemath/spkg/build/maxima-5.23.2.p3/src' *** Error: Failed to build Maxima. *** real4m21.449s user3m49.458s sys0m19.189s Error installing package maxima-5.23.2.p3 Please email sage-devel (http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel) explaining the problem and including the relevant part of the log file /home/jan/sage-4.8/sagemath/spkg/logs/maxima-5.23.2.p3.log Describe your computer, operating system, etc. If you want to try to fix the problem yourself, *don't* just cd to /home/jan/sage-4.8/sagemath/spkg/build/maxima-5.23.2.p3 and type 'make' or whatever is appropriate.
