There is still a problem: Exception occurred: File "/home/pcpa/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/sagemath-5.0.rc0-1.fc16.x86_64/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/sage/libs/symmetrica/all.py", line 3, in <module> from symmetrica import start, end ImportError: /usr/lib64/libsymmetrica.so.0: undefined symbol: local_ende It probably would be better to set DFLAGS in symmetrica,spec to -DALLTRUE -DFAST like the original makefile does, otherwise, it is required to remove -DLOCALTRUE $ grep local_ende BUILD/symmetrica-2.0/*.c BUILD/symmetrica-2.0/de.c: local_ende(); /* AK 280705 */ $ grep local_anfang BUILD/symmetrica-2.0/*.c BUILD/symmetrica-2.0/de.c: local_anfang(); /* AK 280705 */ I asked and was granted commit access in the symmetrica bugzilla, but I think it is better for you to correct it as you already did a lot of extra work on it :-) >> Thanks!
