Compilation of FriCAS

Best thing probably is to compile FriCAS from the source distribution through the link above, because it contains precompiled lisp files etc. etc. See release note .

If, however, you must do Compilation of FriCAS from the svn checkout of trunk (27-Feb-2009), i.e.::

 svn co https://fricas.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fricas/trunk fricas-sources
 mkdir fricas-build
 cd fricas-build
 ../fricas-sources/configure --prefix=/where/to/install/fricas
 make && make install

you might encounter several problems.

Ubuntu 8.10 ships with a broken GCL.
ECL 0.9j takes long to compile (twice as long as with 0.9l). Upgrading of ECL is strongly encouraged.
ECL 0.9j build hangs at the end while generating .pht pages

The build with sbcl (SBCL 1.0.18.debian) worked on Ubuntu 8.10. Call configure as:

 ../fricas-sources/configure --prefix=/where/to/install/fricas --with-lisp=sbcl
