SAGE Windows DEATH MATCH

This is the python extension that Sage will need. The goal is to create an MSI (in visual studio) that installs all of this stuff.

Level 0 -- Sage Ultraflyweight

These are the first things that we need to get up and running. Python is not pure python, but the other ones are.

• Python
  Version 2.6.1
  Source: http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.1/Python-2.6.1.tar.bz2
  Comes with support for MSFT visual studio 8.0 projects / solutions.
  Click here for ways that I have hacked the python visual studio build To Build Completely from Source Python 2.6 has the following dependencies:

  • bzip2
    Version 1.0.5
    Can obtain via: svn export http://svn.python.org/projects/external/bzip2-1.0.5

  • Open SSL
    We don't include this, remove it from the Python 2.6.1 visual studio solution.

  • Berkeley DB
    We don't include this, remove it from the Python 2.6.1 visual studio solution.

• ipython
  Version 0.9.1
  Source: http://ipython.scipy.org/dist/ipython-0.9.1.tar.gz
  Windows Specific Instructions: http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/IpythonOnWindows/
  Pure Python, on windows has dependency:

  • PyReadline
    Version 1.5
    Source: http://ipython.scipy.org/dist/pyreadline-1.5.tar.gz
    Pure Python, specifically designed for windows.

• this must be fully automatable from the sage-3.x.tar distribution + whatever extras are needed.
