Sage 3.4.1.rc2 released

[mabshoff]

Hello,

this is 3.4.1.rc2. Loads of Solaris fixes for doctests, additional
doctests, several spkg updates and misc fixes. All the details can be
seen in the list below, but note that the number of patches merged is
much larger than originally intended and announced. This build will be
the basis of Doc Day 4 this Saturday, so if you plan to participate
please build this as soon as possible. As usual a sage.math binary,
the sources and the update tree are all available at or in

http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/release-cycles-3.4.1/

Compared to 3.4.1.rc1 two doctests failures were fixed, but it seems
that a new OSX and Solaris specific one popped up:

bsd:sage-3.4.1.rc2 mabshoff$ ./sage -t devel/sage/sage/rings/
infinity.py
sage -t "devel/sage/sage/rings/infinity.py"
**********************************************************************
File "/Users/mabshoff/sage-3.4.1.rc2/devel/sage/sage/rings/
infinity.py", line 408:
sage: CDF(-infinity)
Expected:
-infinity
Got:
+infinity
**********************************************************************

This is now #5748. Tomorrow should bring plenty of doctest patches and
merges, so a 3.4.1.rc3 is in the card. My main goal is to fix some
ATLAS issues, downgrade GAP and update clisp and enable the no
readline option for Maxima.

Please build, test and report any failures you do find. It is now
planned to get this release out as soon as possible with the bounty
from DocDay 4 since tomorrow a months will have passed since the
release of Sage 3.4.

Cheers,

Michael

Yeah, David Roe reported the same problem. The bug is present on OSX
in general, but only bites us on OSX 10.4.

To work around it: find libgmpxx.la in $SAGE_LOCAL/lib and adjust
(accounting for you prefix)

# Libraries that this one depends upon.
dependency_libs=' /tmp/mpr-1.0/lib/libmpir.la'

from libmpir.la to libgmp.la. I have reported it upstream and will put
a temporary fix in place in the mpir.spkg so we do not have to wait on
upstream to build mpir on OSX 10.4.

Cheers,

Michael

Built w/o problems on Mac OS X, 10.5.6 (Dual Quad Xeon). Testing was
successful, save for the +/- infinity issue you mentioned.

[Kiran Kedlaya]

Built from scratch on Fedora 10 (64-bit Opteron 250), failed two
doctests on the first try:

sage -t "devel/sage/sage/calculus/calculus.py"
sage -t "devel/sage/sage/calculus/equations.py"

both on timeouts. I tried them both individually: equations.py ran in
30 seconds, calculus.py took long enough that I didn't have the
patience to let it finish (I killed it after 288 seconds).

Ubuntu 9.04 beta (Jaunty), compiled and tested fine with 'export
MAKE=make -j2'
and 'make'. Using it now.

[David M. Monarres]

On OSX 10.5.6 it builds fine with the following errors in doctests:

HI Michael,

I noticed the following change in dsage_worker.py in sage_scripts:

$ git diff dsage_worker.py
diff --git a/dsage_worker.py b/dsage_worker.py
index e7652be..b3081a1 100755

(the diff is the opposite, e.g. I took the 3.4.1.rc2 and copied over
it the old version of sage_scripts from 3.4 to see what has changed)

It seems to me like a leftover.

dsage_worker.py is copied over from within the Sage repo each time you
run -b. It seems rather strange and there is no record of
dsage_worker.py being changed, indeed it is in .hgignore. I can only
speculate why it is broken in your version, but did you use a binary
by any chance? Strangely enough in my current merge tree it is rc3
instead of rc2, but I have neither -sdisted nor -bdisted that tree,
but the build directory is

/scratch/mabshoff/sage-3.4.1.rc3

I suspect it might be due to building it in that directory, but I have
no clue why this broke aside from maybe a new and updated version of
setup tools. Note that there is also

$SAGE_LOCAL/bin/dsage_setup.py

which does not have a shebang, but is also copied over out of the Sage
library. Strange to say the least.

If this persists in 3.4.1.final I will open a ticket. Thanks for the
report.
