I've installed several recent CVS versions of axiom through portage, using
axiom-9999.ebuild
All fail to run, on account of the hardwired axiom path on the second line
of /opt/axiom/bin/axiom and /usr/bin/axiom being still set to the build
directory instead of the installation directory. Just changing this line
to:
export AXIOM=/opt/axiom
makes the program actually run, apparently without any further problems.
Note the "export" --- it was necessary, as the binary also needs the path.
Note also, that making /usr/bin/axiom a symlink would be neater (in my case, I
removed it and symlinked from /opt/bin). That way, the change need only be
made once.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sci-mathematics/axiom-9999 (with necessary keywords and unmask to
make it work)
Actual Results:
try to run it: errors ensue, nothing starts
Expected Results:
have started
