unable to build sage-10.3.beta4 on Ubuntu 22.04

[Wouter Castryck]

Hi all,

I'm trying to build Sage 10.3 beta from source in Ubuntu 22.04 by rather naively following

https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/source.html#installation-in-a-multiuser-environment

but I keep bumping into errors when it tries to compile the sagelib package. I pasted part of the error below, but see the attached config.log and sagelib-10.3.beta4.log files for the full logs.

These specific instances correspond to the following configuration:

./configure --config-cache --enable-ccache --prefix=/opt/sage/sage-10.3 --with-system-pari=no

But this is just one of several attempts; the issue is always similar. (Here, the pari option was because I had read in another post about a potential conflict with giac.)

Any help would be most welcome, thanks!

best,
Wouter

I would try to skip cache and ccache options in your call to

./configure

Relevant error from sagelib... log:

    /usr/bin/ld: ///usr/local/lib/libntl.a(RR.o): relocation R_X86_64_TPOFF32 against symbol `_ZN3NTL2RR4precE' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
    /usr/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: bad value
    collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

To fix, remove the broken installation of NTL in /usr/local

This indeed fixed it, thanks a lot!

SageMath is up and running, so this is just out of curiosity: are the following small issues normal, given that it concerns a beta release, or are they an indication that something went wrong nevertheless?

* when launching SageMath, two deprecation warnings are printed (see below),

* the instructions say that, when running make ptestlong, one should "not get disturbed by 2 to 3 failures", but here there are quite a few more (see the log file attached), and they all seem related to the fricas module.

Thanks again!

It looks like the fricas package is broken in your installation. Perhaps it's just not installed.

Do you have logs/pkgs/fricas-1.3.8.p1.log ?

If not, it was not installed. It's an optional package.

You can install it by running

make fricas && make build

(or make -j8 instead of just make) - 8 can be replaced by whatever the appropriate # of cores is.

[Dima Pasechnik]

By the way, if you haven't yet installed fricas,

could you try running ./sage and there

sage: from sage.features.fricas import FriCAS
sage: FriCAS().is_present()

What does it output?
