We now offer new self-contained polymake binaries which are based on the polymake_jll package built for the OSCAR project. These are ready to run on all reasonable Linux distributions (including ArchLinux, Debian, Fedora, Manjaro, Ubuntu, …) and macOS versions:

• polymake-4.15-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.15-macos-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.15-macos-aarch64.tar.gz

• polymake-4.14-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.14-macos-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.14-macos-aarch64.tar.gz

• polymake-4.13-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.13-macos-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.13-macos-aarch64.tar.gz

• polymake-4.11-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.11-macos-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.11-macos-aarch64.tar.gz

• polymake-4.10-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.10-macos-x86_64.tar.gz
• polymake-4.10-macos-aarch64.tar.gz

These include polymake and most required dependencies (including a suitable perl version). You still need to install a C++ compiler, otherwise polymake may not be able to build C++ wrappers on demand, g++ on Linux and Xcode on macOS.

To install these packages just extract the tarball and run ./polymake-4.14-linux-x86_64/bin/polymake (or create a symlink to this file in your $PATH).

Details on the sources for these binaries can be found on the page for polymake_jll and the list of dependencies. This was converted to a self-contained tarball using JLLPrefixes.jl and some custom scripts.

Please report any issues in the forum or on github.
