Download for Solaris

Sage 4.3.0.1 is the latest version that builds on SPARC Solaris 10 (SPARC), although we are working on ensuring the latest version of Sage will always run on Solaris 10. We are also working on a 64-bit port to OpenSolaris on x64.
See the Sage wiki for detailed and up to date instructions on installing the Solaris binaries.

The Solaris binaries are compressed and are available in two forms. If your SPARC system has the 'p7zip' command, which is standard on recent Solaris 10 releases, then it is recommended you download sage-...tar.7z as it is considerably smaller than the gzip compressed file. Otherwise you can download the .gz file, build pk7zip yourself, or install Sun patch 137477.

$ p7zip -d sage-....tar.7z (if you used the recommended .7z file) 
$ gzip -d sage-....tar.gz (if you downloaded the larger .gz file)

Sun's version of tar will not extract the binaries, so use the GNU tar.

$ /usr/sfw/bin/gtar xf sage-..tar 
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/sfw/lib 
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Change to the directory where the files were extracted, then run

$ ./sage 

More detailed instructions can be found on the Sage Wiki at solaris-binaries.

You can try Sage on a Sun T5240 running Solaris 10 online. This was kindly donated by Sun to the Sage project.
