I had a hard time building this a few months ago due to various out-of-date dependencies, and ended up giving up. I just tried again with the current versions and encountered no trouble at all. The one tweak that's needed was the python 2 trick mentioned by thelongdivider. Thanks very much to the maintainers!

I have managed to build from github M2 1.7, with a little modification (Python 2 script from the python arch webpage, manually adding the static library libgfortran.a to /usr/lib, etc). Here is the package: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6DRD4BKJyO2dTJsYWZKd3ZXc1U/view?usp=sharing Just cd in M2/M2, and run "make install", and the package will install to /usr/local (read M2/M2/INSTALL to install to a different directory, etc)

It depends from singular-factory package, but that is flagged out-of-date (2011-03-19).

It compiled fine after running that though "make check" still failed. But that's not a big issue. Thanks very much!

That's why I ran sed -i -e '/lgfortran/d' on configure.ac. Is there still a problem with this?

There's a little problem with the gcc-fortran compiler. The libgfortran library in the default arch repository doesn't contain the static library 'libgfortran.a' though there exists the dynamical one 'libgfortran.so'. However, compiling M2 needs this static lib file otherwise there'll be a '-lgfortran' error stopping the compiling process. I figure a way to avoid this error by downloading and extracting the debian libgfortran-dev package to get 'libfortran.a' file so I don't need to compile the whole gcc statically myself. After that I successfully compiled M2.

It seems like there is a conflict with the newest pari and a couple other upstream bugs.

You should also use --libexecdir='${prefix}'/lib/Macaulay2

Updating this to the 1.4 branch required two sed commands for me. After the configure script, run: sed -i -r 's/^\tobjdump(.*)/#\tobjdump\1/g' Macaulay2/bin/Makefile sed -i -r 's/^\techo(.*)/#\techo\1/g' Macaulay2/bin/Makefile i.e. you have to comment out two lines. Then it will build but a run-time dependency will be gc-7.2alpha4. gc-7.1 won't work anymore.
