[Axiom-developer] A few bug reports from Debian users

[Camm Maguire]

Tim, what say ye?



1) 

When attempting to evaluate an expression such as "0.0 + sqrt(pi)",
Axiom loads a number of packages, then aborts with

,----
|   Loading /usr/lib/axiom-0.0.0cvs/mnt/linux/algebra/FACTFUNC.o for 
|       package FactoredFunctions 
|    Loading /usr/lib/axiom-0.0.0cvs/mnt/linux/algebra/COMBF.o for 
|       package CombinatorialFunction 
|  
|    >> System error:
|    Cannot open the file /usr/lib/axiom-0.0.0cvs/mnt/linux/algebra/COMBF.o.
| 
| protected-symbol-warn called with (NIL)
`----

I am using libc6 version 2.3.2-7 on an x86 running Linux kernel 2.5.60.

2)

Package: axiom
Version: 0.0.0cvs-4
Severity: wishlist

When programming in Axiom it is extremely useful to be able to access
at any time the sources of the mathematical libraries (and the
implementation of domains and categories). Therefore the axiom package
should install or at least recommend the installation of these library
sources.

Take care,
Frederic



Take care,
