Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
sage-4.4.2 has just been released. I am guessing that Christopher |
| 4 |
may be preparing for exams in June so I will probably do the bump. |
| 5 |
I have already bumped sage-doc. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Other matters: |
| 8 |
-The situation on amd64 is still bad. There has been a silent (no revbump) |
| 9 |
update to cython to deal with a strict-aliasing problem: |
| 10 |
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=294585 |
| 11 |
I don't have the hardware so I cannot check if it has an influence on our |
| 12 |
problems but it is worth a try. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
-python-2.6.5-r2 is going stable. sage is of course still shipping 2.6.4. |
| 15 |
I have already put a "pickled" version of python-2.6.5-r2 in the overlay |
| 16 |
(2.6.5-r99). Apart from: |
| 17 |
http://github.com/cschwan/sage-on-gentoo/issues#issue/1 |
| 18 |
which needs to be fixed in sage (patch/suggestions welcome) I don't expect |
| 19 |
any problems with that. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
-mpir-2.0.0 entered the overlay, sage is actually still shipping 1.2.2. |
| 22 |
Report problems as usual. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
-I have tracked 2 other failing tests which are now working: |
| 25 |
http://github.com/cschwan/sage-on-gentoo/issues#issue/8 |
| 26 |
http://github.com/cschwan/sage-on-gentoo/issues#issue/9 |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
-I am wondering if issues 3 and 6 are down to -ffast-math in one way |
| 29 |
or another. If you have any similar issues please post. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
-still no clue on gap's behaviour. Considering the amount of aliasing problem |
| 32 |
you may as well try to add -fno-strict-aliasing to your CFLAGS for building |
| 33 |
gap and see if that improve things. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
-I have imported sympy-0.6.6 in the overlay as it has left the portage tree |
| 36 |
and sage currently doesn't work with 0.6.7. We should investigate doing |
| 37 |
some porting work. Porting work to scipy-0.7.2 would be a good idea too. |
