I am attempting to compile Sage on Ubuntu 16.04. I downloaded the binaries and installed a package. I run "make" in my Sage directory and this is what I get:

The following package(s) may have failed to build (not necessarily during this run of 'make all'):

The build directory may contain configuration files and other potentially helpful information. WARNING: if you now run 'make' again, the build directory will, by default, be deleted. Set the environment variable SAGE_KEEP_BUILT_SPKGS to 'yes' to prevent this.

Makefile:16: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 1

Following the suggestion in the error message, I changed my environmental variables as follows (I added the second line):

~/Desktop/SageMath$ cat /etc/environment PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games" export SAGE_KEEP_BUILT_SPKGS=yes

Then, following a suggestion here I executed the following:

sudo apt-get install libstdc++6

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade

When I run "make", I still get the following errors:

Can someone please advise? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  1. Verify your current libstdc++ has GLIBCXX_3.4.21:

    strings /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 | grep GLIBCXX_3.4.21
    
  2. Create a symlink as follows:

    ln -sf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6.0.21 /home/davidk/Desktop/SageMath/local/lib/libstdc++.so.6
    
  3. make
