#24919 implemented a mechanism for checking for checking for sagelib's direct and indirect dependencies at the time of running the main ./configure script. This was already done in an ad-hoc manner for a handful of packages (e.g. gcc, git, yasm, curl), but we wanted to be able to do the same for other packages, especially those that are common on Linux-like systems.

This has now been implemented for many other packages, or is in the process of being implemented. Those packages are listed below. However, there are many others yet to be done, and this ticket will attempt to list them in some rough order of priority.

For use of Python packages: See #29023 Meta-ticket: In a python 3 build, use system Python packages

Already done

The following packages already have spkg-configure.m4 checks that are working on most or all supported platforms:

In Progress

The following packages have in-progress tickets to provide configure-time detection on the system:

Have tickets

The following packages have tickets for their conversions, but don't have working prototypes (i.e. branches) yet:

No ticket yet

Use of system Python packages

This will be be handled by #29023. Please do not add Python packages here.

The following are exceptions (because it does not run in the same Python as sage):

Testing infrastructure

Meta infrastructure

Documentation

Unfortunately there is still not good documentation for how to implement these configure-time dependency checks.

Bug-fixing

A number of bugs/deficiencies has been uncovered in spkg-configure.m4 files and related configuration, and a number of tickets opened/closed

Note: The list of packages in the description is not yet exhaustive; please add others that are missing as you see fit and/or reprioritize. This is just a rough sketch.

There is also #27373, which concerns packages that change build/run environment, e.g. mpir/gmp/mpfr, that should be resolved in some way.

I'm building Sagemath on an updated Archlinux. I have done so last year when sage was hosted on trac but didn't really notice the issues or simply ignored them.

I installed the packages mentioned here - https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/source.html#arch-linux-package-installation

However after running ./configure, I get this -

the following SPKGs did not find equivalent system packages:
eclib fflas_ffpack gengetopt givaro linbox rpy2   _develop gp2c libsemigroups perl_cpan_polymake_prereq perl_mongodb _recommended

So, I tried to install them manually like so,

sudo pacman -S eclib fflas-ffpack gengetopt givaro linbox python-rpy2 libsemigroups perl-xml-writer perl-xml-libxml perl-xml-libxslt perl-file-slurp perl-json

The perl_cpan_polymake_prereq is satisifed using perl-xml-writer perl-xml-libxml perl-xml-libxslt perl-file-slurp perl-json from main repository and perl-svg from the AUR.

source 1 - void-linux/void-packages#19090 (comment)

There are AUR packages for these - gp2c, perl-svg.

There's no equivalent however for perl_mongodb.
After installing these and running ./configure, I again get a similar issue but now the requirements have decreased. However, it still shows some of the packages that have already been installed. This might be due to spkg not being able to identify these.

notice: the following SPKGs did not find equivalent system packages:                          
                                                                                              
        eclib fflas_ffpack givaro linbox rpy2   _develop perl_mongodb _recommended

This is normal. Just continue with building Sage.

Yeah! The build was successful. Faster than the previous time after using export MAKE="make -j16" and export V=0.

@sheerluck Thanks for the pointer. I've opened #36023 to track this problem.
