Maxima dosen't compile

[joaocfernandes@…]

Hi!

I am a brand new user, using mac os X Tiger, with x code 2. i got this error compiling Maxima:

(...) ;; Loading of file /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/ file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_math_maxima/ work/maxima-5.9.0/src/maxima.system is finished. ; - Compiling defsystem "maxima" * - UNIX error 45 (EOPNOTSUPP): Operation not supported on socket 0 errors, 0 warnings make[1]: * [binary-clisp/maxima.mem] Error 1 make: * [all-recursive] Error 1

Warning: the following items did not execute (for maxima): com.apple.activate com.apple.build com.apple.destroot com.apple.archive com.apple.install

(...)

After a search i got this adress also ​http://www.opendarwin.org/pipermail/darwinports/2005-May/ 025689.html that is the same problem i have. If i am doing this wrong i am sorry. it's my first time i report a bug.

Thanks João Fernandes

I'll look at this. It may be that the underlying lisp needs to be changed to SBCL or OpenMCL, since CLISP has become so unreliable on OS X.

I have changed maxima to use openmcl instead of clisp. Let me know if it works for you. (The version has also been changed to the latest release, 5.9.1.)
