Error building deformation and libsemigroups 0.6.7

[Tirthankar Mazumder]

While running make ptestalllong, I was able to build all the packages that it needs except for Deformation. I tried building it many times, but it failed every time. It said

/usr/bin/ld: -r and -pie may not be used together

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I got all the other packages to install, even though in some of them I had to manually go to their download directory (which was in SAGE_ROOT/local/var/tmp/sage/build/) and edit the Makefile. The reason for this was, some of the packages (specifically, libsemigroups-0.6.7) output a Makefile with the -march and -mtune flags set for the compiler, but I have an 11th gen Intel processor, so GCC doesn't accept tigerlake or native as a valid flag yet. The Makefile generator for that library (which I believe is GNU AutoTools) should incorporate a check to see if the -march=native flag is available on the target system, like the cryptominisat-5.6.8 package does.

I'm attaching 4 log files: The entire log for for deformation-d05941b.p0, which contains the build output for every single time I tried to build the package, a shortened version of that log file which contains what (I feel) is the relevant portion of that log file, the entire log file of libsemigroups-0.6.7, and a shorter version of the libsemigroups-0.6.7 log file which contains what (I feel) is the relevant portion of that lengthy log file.

P.S. --- I have some experience in building Sage on WSL2, having done it twice (on two different machines), so I want to edit the Sage on Windows page's WSL section, but it appears that you can't use your GitHub-linked Trac account on the Wiki. How would I go about getting an account I can use on the Wiki? I'd prefer having one account to use across trac.sagemath.org and the Wiki, if that's possible.

Thanks in advance,

Tirthankar

errors building libsemigroups should be reported on its github page:

https://github.com/libsemigroups/libsemigroups

deformation package, on the other hand is more or less abandonware.

Fix for deformation has been tagged in my fork.

And mentioned here:

https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/30325

Feel free to package and review.

Not sure that it supports GMP instead of MPIR (which is also abandonware).

I've quickly checked, and it appears to just work with modern GMP. See
