[Axiom-developer] Re: [Axiom-math] Axiom: Errors on suse 10.2, 32 bit

[Arthur Ralfs]

Constantine,

There are various versions of "axiom" floating around but to build
the silver branch go here:

http://wiki.axiom-developer.org/AxiomSources

and execute the "git-clone" command in a suitable directory.
git is available under Yast in opensuse.

There is one glitch in that opensuse changed the location
of the X libraries with 10.2 and the locations specified in
the top level Makefile have to be changed.

Open up the Makefile.pamphlet and go to the Makefile.linux
section.  The X libraries used to be in something like "/usr/X11/lib"
or maybe "/usr/X11R6/lib" and are now in just "/usr/lib".  So
Change the "XLIB" environment variable to /usr/lib and eliminate
any other X11 or X11R6 you see, like maybe in CCF and LDF
(I'm looking at a Makefile.pamphlet that I've already altered).

Then just follow the directions in readme, setting the AXIOM and
PATH variables as told to by configure.

You of course have to make sure that you have latex and the
basic development packages installed as well.
