Update jsMath-image-fonts install path detection

e14f4152-4982-4ace-8c95-73a0599b109b commented 14 years ago

Post-#7467, the SageNB install path depends on its version, but jsmath-image-fonts-1.4.p2.spkg expects a slightly different format.

This ticket just updates spkg-install.

See sage-devel, sage-devel.

There's a trial package at

I've CC'd Dr. Kirkby, because I see

$ checkbashisms -x -f spkg-install
possible bashism in spkg-install line 36 (bash arrays, ${name[0|*|@]}):
for DIR in ${CANDIDATES[@]}; do
possible bashism in spkg-install line 44 (bash arrays, ${name[0|*|@]}):
    echo "${CANDIDATES[*]}"

I don't know if these are problems on Solaris or, if they are, how to work around them.

Works with Sage 4.3. Positive review. Thanks for fixing.

I've merged this in with the optional spkgs.

Hi,

I upgraded sagenb.org to use sagenb-0.5. I then tried to install this spkg. It definitely got confused and didn't work, for some reason (maybe because of an old sagenb from before). I eventually manually copied the fonts to:

/usr/local/sage/local/lib/python/site-packages/sagenb/data/jsmath/fonts

where sagenb is a symlink to sagenb-0.5-*egg/sagenb, and this did work.

Notice that:

root@boxen:/usr/local/sage/local/lib/python/site-packages/sagenb/data/jsmath/fonts# python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jul 22 2009, 15:33:10) 
[GCC 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu3)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> from pkg_resources import Requirement, working_set
>>> sagenb_path = working_set.find(Requirement.parse('sagenb')).location
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'location'

I'm really just recording this for posterity in case there really is something wrong. I don't have time to delve deeper now.

I would not be surprised, if it really is wrong. The Python script embedded in spkg-install is run with /usr/bin/env python. Maybe this doesn't always use Sage's python?
