  • Ticket #16350

    • Property Summary changed from GIT_EXEC_PATH doesn't match installed git execdir to on some systems, pkg-libexecs are installed into local/lib instead of local/libexec

  • Ticket #16350 – Description

    v2 v6  
    1 Doctest fails in `dev/sagedev.py` caused by mismatch between GIT_EXEC_PATH in `bin/sage-env` and `execdir` in the git install, introduced with #15901.
    2 
    3 `GIT_EXEC_PATH="$SAGE_LOCAL"/libexec/git-core && export GIT_EXEC_PATH` while `execdir` is `local/lib`.
     1The Unix Filesystem Hierarchy Standard advises '*/lib' as a place for libraries but in version 2.3 allows other '*/lib*' paths. The package install script `configure` thus assumes (maybe not on all systems) that, if no `execdir` is given, `*/lib` should be used. This leads to doctest fails in `dev/sagedev.py` caused by mismatch between GIT_EXEC_PATH in `bin/sage-env` (which hardcodes `local/libexec`) and the actual `execdir` used in the git install (which is `local/lib` on SuSE and other systems if it's not preset with the configure command), introduced with #15901.
