| = Sage Port to FreeBSD 6.x, 7.x and 8.x = == Native Port == Since Sage 3.2 it is possible to build Sage with a few modifications and get it to start up, but there are problems with java for example, so not all doctests pass. Specific build notes: * [[/sage-2.9.1.1|Sage 2.9.1.1 on FreeBSD 6.3]] * [[/sage-2.10.2|Sage 2.10.2 on FreeBSD 6.3]] * [[/sage-3.2|Sage 3.2 on FreeBSD 7.0]] * [[/sage-3.4|Sage 3.4 on FreeBSD 7.2 & 8.x]] * [[/sage-4.1|Sage 4.1 on FreeBSD 7.2 & 8.x]] == Linux Emulation == Precompiled Sage binaries will run under linux emulation on FreeBSD with some caveats; the biggest issue is a noted error when trying to render plain 2-D plots. Otherwise, both the command line and notebook interfaces seem to work, including raytracing with[[Tachyon]]. Tested configurations (plotting works on none, all other features "seem" to work): * sage-2.10.2-linux-32bit-debian-i686-Linux on FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE with {{{linux_base-fc-4_10}}} (fedora core 4.10) * sage-3.0-debian32-intel-i686-Linux on FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE with {{{linux_base-fc-4_10}}} (fedora core 4.10) Here are basic instructions: 1. Make sure the linux kernel module was compiled into FreeBSD and is loaded with kldstat; linprocfs does not seem to be required 1. Install {{{emulators/linux_base}}} (using ports system, {{{pkg_add -r}}}, etc) 1. Download and extract the latest sage binary distribution (eg, {{{sage-2.10.2-linux-32bit-debian-i686-Linux.tar.gz}}}) 1. Enter extracted directory and edit the script {{{sage}}} to set {{{SAGE_ROOT}}} to the full path of that directory 1. Run {{{/compat/linux/bin/bash ./sage}}} == Official Port == The[[http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook|Porter's Handbook]]is the place to look for porting directions It may make sense to have both a native math/sage-math and a linux math/linux-sage-math port, at least for a while? A linux port would be more reliable and easier to keep up to date. Here is a possible pkg-descr: {{{ Sage: Open Source Mathematics Software -------------------------------------- Creating a viable free open source alternative to Magma, Maple, Mathematica, and Matlab WWW: http://sagemath.org/ }}} and a possible pkg-descr: {{{ ##################################################################### # # # NOTE: Some additional packages are highly recommended for Sage: # # # # # # latex (print/latex): for type setting # # # ##################################################################### }}} |
