Hi Robert:
I was using the same lisp with the previous version of Maxima, which was
also downloaded from git.
In my cloned git repository of Maxima, not knowing a lot about git, I
added a branch named pfb-build and did a git checkout pfb-build which I
used to build the previous version of maxima and I experienced no problems.
I've been in the habit of downloading the entire repository every time I
want to upgrade Maxima, but this time, since I wanted to learn a little
about git, I did the following in my cloned repository:
git checkout master
git branch -d pfb-build
git pull, which brought about 20 updates into the master branch
git branch pfb-build
git checkout pfb-build
This all seemed to work perfectly so I went through the build process;
bootstrap
configure --prefix=$HOME/maxima-test --enable-sbcl
--with-sbcl=/usr/local/bin/sbcl
make
make check
make install
The make check step did not find any errors.
The error showed up when I ran the testsuite from within wxMaxima.
I just ran the testsuite from within xmaxima and got no errors.
I just ran the testsuite from within wxMaxima and it got the same error,
so the problem is not Maxima's,but wxMaxima's. I didn't think to do that
earlier.
The version of wxMaxima is wxMaxima 13.04.1.
Respectfully,
Paul Bowyer
