Binary sage-8.7-OSX_10.11.6-x86_64.tar.bz2 doesn't work on my Mac

[Paul Mercat]

Hi,

I downloaded the file sage-8.7-OSX_10.11.6-x86_64.tar.bz2, then extract the files, and then ran sage, and I get the following error :

MacBook-Pro-de-Paul:SageMath mercatp$ ./sage

RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded during compilation

Error running the script 'relocate-once.py'.

Do you know what is the problem ?

My version of MacOS is 10.11.6.

Thank you.

It looks like the problem has been solved in sage-8.8, unfortunably the binary is not available for macOS 10.11.6 but only for macOS 10.14.5.

And I tried to install binaries of sage-8.5, sage-8.6 and sage-8.7 for macOS 10.11.6 and nothing works on my computer (with 8.6 I have the same error, and with 8.5 I have a different one).

There is no way for macOS 10.11.6 users to install Sage without compiling it from source ?

You can try the conda package. https://github.com/sagemath/sage/blob/develop/src/doc/en/installation/conda.rst

Most of those binaries for 10.11 were created by me, but maybe I forgot to make one for 8.8.  It is possible that some of those others were created with this bug, though I haven't seen this report before (not that I'm checking the lists continually).  I'll try to rectify this, as well as make one for 8.9 when it comes out.

Thank you, I found a binary of sage-8.8 for macOS 10.11.6 on the MIT mirror (but not in other europeen mirrors I tried), and it works !

Great!  Harald just uploaded it yesterday so you must have caught the MIT mirror ahead of the others.
