Problem installing surface_dynamics package

asked 2020-08-17 05:17:25 +0200

I am using Sagemath on my Pixelbook using the Linux terminal. I was able to successfully install sagemath using get-apt install sagemath. I am now trying to install the surface_dynamics package and am running into an error. In the sage shell, I am running the following two commands, (as described on the package installation instructions):

source /usr/share/sagemath/bin/sage-env
pip install surface_dynamics --user

When I do this, I get the following error:

surface_dynamics/flat_surfaces/origamis/origami_dense.c:457:35: fatal error: sage/libs/ntl/ntlwrap.h: No such file or directory
 #include "sage/libs/ntl/ntlwrap.h"
                                   ^
compilation terminated.
error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1

I am quite confused as to why I am getting this error because if I go to the /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sage/libs/ntl directory, the file does exist. Any suggestions as to what is going wrong here would be greatly appreciated.


Update: I installed cython, and now I am getting a different error when I run pip install surface_dynamics --user:

I had a very similar problem. I could resolve it by installing the sage binary from the website rather than using the Linux package, see https://ask.sagemath.org/question/523...

Could you provide more information about your operating system (Ubuntu? Which version?)
