First, whoa! Three alpha releases in, what, 24 hours? William, you're on
fire!
alpha2 does not work so well on 64 bit Ubuntu Jaunty. Lots of doctests
failed like this:
sage -t devel/sage/sage/schemes/elliptic_curves/ell_curve_isogeny.py
Aborted
[44.3 s]
sage -t devel/sage/sage/groups/perm_gps/partn_ref/refinement_matrices.pyx
Aborted
[42.1 s]
I think that's related to the segfault that Minh reported.
Here's what seems to be a real error:
sage -t "devel/sage/sage/misc/latex.py"

Doctesting R failed quite badly:

RuntimeError: R was not compiled with PNG support
**********************************************************************
That was just the first error; I think the (many!) others all stem from the PNG
support problem. It looks like #7665 is to blame. (Based on the title of
the ticket, I haven't checked anything...)
I also see a failure with
sage -t "local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sagenb-0.8-py2.6.egg/sagenb/misc/misc.py"
where it tries to add a string and an Integer.
Finally, I see a failure with
sage -t devel/sage/doc/en/thematic_tutorials/group_theory.rst
where the Cayley table is printed with a, b, c instead of x0, x1, x2.
I'm attaching my ptest.log.

This was compiled on a server that doesn't have X installed.
I could attach the install log, but I doubt it would be helpful -- it
fails to find X, and keeps going as well as it can.
I'll try installing some X headers and reinstalling R.
I checked another build of alpha2, this one on a regular desktop Ubuntu
machine, and it doesn't have Xwindows.h, although it does have X and
Gnome and so on. So that machine saw the same test failures as the
server machine.
There should be a better way to tell R to build with PNG support. It
seems like it shouldn't need to link in X libraries just to spit out a
PNG file.
