Problems creating SageMath from sources

[OHappyDay]

Hi,

when I try to build SageMath from source tarball (https://github.com/sagemath/sage/releases/download/10.9/sage-10.9.tar.gz) I run into a problem.

It affects the build of wheel for rpy2_rinterface-3.6.6. (see attached log files).

My system:

Linux Ubuntu 24.04

Ideas what is wrong? I could build with 10.8 without problems.

Thanks
Klaus`

that's a missing dependency (an Ubuntu bug, arguably), fixable by
installing libtirpc-dev using apt-get

In the meantime I found another thread with a similar problem. The solution was to disable R/py2 :

./configure --disable-r

Build is now working perfectly.

Thanks, I will try that too.

Installing the missing dependency resolved the issue. 
Thanks again.

Dear All,

I have a similar problem to the one mentioned in this thread. I got a problem with rpy2_rinterface-3.6.6. I tried a lot of different things suggested by AI, but none of them worked. Then I tried what was suggested in this thread on MacOS Sequoia 15.6.1:

make distclean

./configure --with-python=/opt/homebrew/bin/python3.12 --disable-r

make

and got the following error message:

Describe your computer, operating system, etc.
If you want to try to fix the problem yourself, *don't* just cd to
/Applications/sage/local/var/lib/sage/venv-python3.12/var/tmp/sage/build/cysignals-1.12.6 and type 'make' or whatever is appropriate.
Instead, the following commands setup all environment variables
correctly and load a subshell for you to debug the error:
  (cd '/Applications/sage/local/var/lib/sage/venv-python3.12/var/tmp/sage/build/cysignals-1.12.6' && '/Applications/sage/sage' --buildsh)
When you are done debugging, you can type "exit" to leave the subshell.

Any ideas what I can try next?
