Sage 9.4.beta5 released

[Volker Braun]

As always, you can get the latest beta version from the "develop" git branch. Alternatively, the self-contained source tarball is at http://www.sagemath.org/download-latest.html 

I think we are in a reasonable shape right now, so if anyone is still in favor of a fast release cycle we could do it now... discuss ;-)

A quick heads-up for incremental builds and merging old branches: Ticket https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/31577 moved some directories around. This is preparation for the next phase of Sage modularization.

 

The command "git clean -f -x build/pkgs/*/src" will be helpful if you run into merge conflicts.

On Debian testing running on core i5 + 8 GB RAM, ptestlong gives the same results as on 9.4.beta4

I'd like to see #30668 merged (as well as all the other users of autoconf 2.71)
#32079 is a configure bugfix, positively reviewed 20 days ago.

There are quite a few other semi-trivial and positively reviewed
tickets which are bitrotting, e.g. #31663
was positively reviewed 93 days ago, #31900 (42 days ago), etc.

Tests are still running at https://github.com/sagemath/sage/actions, but I think that the next beta version could already be the first release candidate. There are a number of important tickets that should be merged in it, and remaining issues:

1) https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/31786 (still waiting for review) - Accept gcc 11 (for fedora 34)

2) Cygwin situation - still waiting for the test to finish at https://github.com/sagemath/sage/actions/runs/1043495291, but likely still broken with a build error in pynac related to singular (see https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/32001). 

3) About a dozen positively reviewed "critical" tickets that fix broken packages and testsuite failures

4) To second Dima's suggestion, I have promoted the oldest 5 positively reviewed tickets to "major" so that they have a chance of getting merged

5) Conda situation - there are a number of build problems on top of conda-forge (see https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/32087), which is a regression from Sage 9.2, 9.3

I could compile it from the first built on my Mac OS 11.3 with Intel Core i5.

But, neither ptestlong nor testlong worked....

Should be fixed by

#32165: Fix failing doctest in number_field_ideal.py (positive_review)

+1 for merging some of these tickets that have been positively reviewed for +2 weeks. I also would like #32140 merged before the next release cycle because it fixes up a bunch of invalid escape sequences to get us more Python3 compliant in our documentation.

If we merge basically all of the tickets with a positive review, we probably have enough for a release.

Best,

Travis

Currently 150 tickets have milestone 9.4 and positive review:

#32002 causes a test suite regression when using system giac 1.7. Fixed in #32275, please review.

I would appreciate if Trac #32198 could still be included into 9.4: this ticket
slightly changes the signature of a method introduced in 9.4.beta5 (Trac
#27940): one argument is now a keyword only argument to make future extensions
easier.

Thank you for considering.
