Description (last modified by )
The GCC spkg broke upgrading from old Sage versions because of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH not containing lib32 or lib64. We can fix this using Leif's idea of sage-env versioning (see #10469).
We should also rebuild GCC if gcc was already installed before.

If sage-env gets sourced more than once (as can happen during upgrading with this patch), we will get duplicate entries in $PATH, $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and others. I don't think this is an issue, but it was one of the points of #10469. Should I be concerned about this?
comment:14 Changed 8 years ago by
In the comments about versioning in sage-env, is it worth mentioning the motivation behind it, or are the pointers to the tickets good enough? We don't want people updating the version needlessly, so maybe add a sentence or two explaining when it's necessary (and when it's not?) to change the version number.

Regarding the problem with R, I see it without this patch also. This is on OS X 10.7, for what that's worth. The file src/include/libintl.h from the R spkg ends up copied to the file SAGE_LOCAL/lib/R/include.

Replying to jhpalmieri:
And sure enough, there is a file (not a directory)
SAGE_LOCAL/lib/R/include. It's not from the previous installation, since the spkg-install file deletesSAGE_LOCAL/lib/R/. I'm guessing that it's not related to this ticket. Have you ever seen this before?
Yes, I only ever saw it on OS X though but I haven't investigated further.

True.

Personally, I am not concerned about this. I don't see a problem (apart from efficiency perhaps) with having duplicate PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH entries. Also note that #10469 did not point out a particular problem that this causes.
Also remember that this can happen only during upgrading.

Made a comment-only change to the patch. I made a potentially controversial edit to the list of authors, let me know what you think (we could also get rid of the "authors" list completely).
comment:19 Changed 8 years ago by
- Reviewers set to John Palmieri
- Status changed from needs_review to positive_review
Looks good to me. If you feel like one more minor edit, in line 11 of sage-env, change "intented" to "intended". Obviously not a big deal.
comment:20 Changed 8 years ago by
- Merged in set to sage-5.4.beta1
- Resolution set to fixed
- Status changed from positive_review to closed

For the record, I have seen this too now, same type of system.

Also for the record, it's fixed at #13428.

Great, thanks!
Why doesn't touching
spkg/installed/gcc-*before going an upgrade cause all packages that depend on gcc to be rebuilt? Oh, I see, nothing actually depends on gcc.I've tried upgrading using this patch, and several times I've gotten an error with R:
And sure enough, there is a file (not a directory)
SAGE_LOCAL/lib/R/include. It's not from the previous installation, since the spkg-install file deletesSAGE_LOCAL/lib/R/. I'm guessing that it's not related to this ticket. Have you ever seen this before?
