Sage 9.4.beta0 fails to build on MacOS 10.15.7

[Paul Masson]

Let me preface this issue by saying that I don't use Sage much because I prefer to work in pure JavaScript. I'm only trying to build in order to upgrade Three.js. The process needs to be frictionless for me.

After "configure" and a couple "make distclean", the build process hangs at a specific spot in the documentation build system. Here was the initial hang:

[sage_docbuild-9.4.beta0] Installing collected packages: sage-docbuild

[sage_docbuild-9.4.beta0] 

[sage_docbuild-9.4.beta0] Successfully installed sage-docbuild-9.4b0

[sage_docbuild-9.4.beta0] Removed build tracker: '/private/var/folders/np/_r579ck92g1f9x1tzcvdhy5m0000gn/T/pip-req-tracker-l7mxw1p6'

touch "/Users/Masson/Downloads/GitHub/sage/local/var/lib/sage/installed/sage_docbuild-9.4.beta0"

Tried another distclean. Tried manually setting permissions on the touched file to 755. Tried deleting my .sage directory.

Every run builds a bit more of other packages then halts on this line. Every time.

Anyone know how to avoid this? Can't upgrade Three.js is I can't build.

you don't need to build docs per se, just do

make build

That's precisely what I'm doing!

[Dima Pasechnik]

hmm, this is new to me. Why would docbuild be needed to be built if no docs are going to be built, its not logical.

Can you outline the steps you're taking from the beginning?  I think Dima is suggesting that the only reason that you'd see [sage_docbuild-9.4.beta0] is if you used `make` rather than `make build`.

It's been awhile since I've built Sage, but really this is what I'm doing:

Ran "configure" just in case anything had changed

Ran "make distclean" to start fresh

Ran "make build" mostly because I forgot about a simple "make"

The documentation error truly appears for "make build". At this point I could live without the documentation, since this upgrade won't add new features to the viewer.

[David Roe]

The doc build is at the very end; does Sage work now?  If not, what error does it give when you try to start it?

`sage_docbuild` is the name of the package that provides the docbuilding code. Installing it does not build the documentation.

[Paul Masson]

As an experiment I tried running "make" on its own, and it's currently building the documentation. Hopefully the remainder of Sage will now build.

Telling you, there is an error installing sage_docbuild using just "make build".

The documentation builds but the remainder does not. If I then run "make build" it still hangs at the same line.

Will try "make distclean" followed by single "make". It appears to be building the documentation too early.

[Paul Masson]

And that didn't work either. Build hangs at the end of documentation:

[dochtml] Elapsed time: 1773.8 seconds.

[dochtml] Done building the documentation!

Then nothing more. 

[Dima Pasechnik]

no need to do distclean all the time, imho.

You can just kill the hanging process.

It looks like a lock not clearing somewhere.

How about

      make ptest

?

Does this get you past building, and onto

testing ?

It does not. This time it ran through the documentation build again, then hung on sympow. No testing.

I quite that process and ran "make build" again. This time it hangs on a different package, and look at the first line below:

Has anyone built Sage on 10.15 (Catalina)? Sage seems to think I'm using the previous version. 

[Paul Masson]

Last question was silly: it built just fine for me at the end of last year, with the same version number of the OS. Still, why would 10.14 be appearing in the log?

Sage 9.3 yes, sure, see e.g. sage-9.3-OSX_10.15.7-x86_64.tar.bz2 on mirrors.

Do you have some special env.vars set? Could you post the top-level config.log?

Haven't changed anything in Sage since last fall.

[Dima Pasechnik]

Your Homebrew install appears to be quite outdated. It has gfortran 8.2, for instance. Is your xcode also outdated?

Could you upgrade these?

it comes from your /usr/bin/python3 -
which apparently was installed while your machine still ran 10.14, and
not updated.
