OS X Lion: symmetrica doesn't work

Description (last modified by jhpalmieri) (diff)

With the default compiler in XCode 4, OS X Lion, the symmetrica spkg apparently builds successfully and passes self-tests, but the file devel/sage/sage/libs/symmetrica/schur.pxi fails doctests: it hangs and times out. One possible fix: compile the spkg with optimization turned off; then schur.pxi passes tests in under 3 seconds. (Another possible solution: compile with /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 if present. If you try to compile with clang, the build fails.)

New spkg:  http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/palmieri/SPKG/symmetrica-2.0.p8.spkg

The spkg here checks for /usr/bin/gcc-4.2. If present, it uses it; otherwise, it turns off optimization when compiling.

  • Status changed from needs_review to positive_review
  • Milestone changed from sage-5.0 to sage-duplicate/invalid/wontfix

I think this should be closed, since building gcc (#12369) allows symmetrica to build without problems.
