[Pkg-julia-devel] building julia 0.3

[Ross Boylan]

I redid the make (with the SUITESPARSE removed), but I'm not entirely
sure what happened.  First, I don't see a reference to a sparse
submodule, though something was downloaded.  Second, some libraries
were built, but not the julia executable.  Will it just pick the right
ones up dynamically?

cholmod_version does appear on the transcript, and there are no errors
that I see.

lapack is 3.4 in Wheezy, so I continued to use the system version.
