Hi, I was having problems getting past the './configure' step on my linux system -- checking for -lcln to be exact. I eventually learned to look at the 'config.log' file and realized the problem. While compiling the test program for the "-lcln" check my system ran out of virtual memory (see config.log snippet and /proc/meminfo data below). However, if I try to compile the test program on my own - outside the 'configure' script - then I have no problems. Any ideas about how to get around this? I could just kluge the 'configure' script since I know '-lcln' works. I'm wondering though if my 233 MHz,32MB RAM linux box isn't going to be able to handle ginac. Any ideas? In the mean time, I'm trying to get ginac installed our Sun Enterprise servers at work but I'm having trouble there too (but I'll tinker with that some more before bugging all of you!)
