Hello,

Just trying to build sage on arch linux:

[fidbc@avalancha ~]$ uname -a
Linux avalancha 3.19.3-3-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 8 14:10:00 CEST 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux

There seems to be an error while building libgd. A couple of possibly related errors were reported on sage-release:


I haven't been able to build sage successfully though. When updating I usually just move my current sage root directory to sage_old, and then I just clone from the github repo. Could this have anything to do?

I have tried make distclean and also cloning the github repo all over without success. I have the exact same issue with another computer (same OS).

Please let me know if there is any other info I should provide.

Thanks,
Fidel


libgd-2.1.0.p0.log

this error seems to be arch/gentoo - specific. Perhaps gentoo people can say more.

Issue solved. In case anyone using arch linux runs into the same issue, you can drop the attached patch into the build/pkgs/libgd/patches/ directory.

The problem seems to be with the libvpx library (which was recently updated). For more details see:

I can't build Sage-6.6 on Ubuntu 14.10 (i.e., SageMathCloud's os right
now) because of exactly the same issue... thanks for the patch.
