Hi,

Just compiled and installed polymake 3.1 without error. But it crashes as soon as it starts with error:

Loading applications now...polymake: ERROR: Bundled extension /usr/local/share/polymake/bundled/group lacks description file polymake.ext

OS is Ubuntu 16.04 64 bits. Please help.

I think I have figured it out.

/usr/local/share/polymake/bundled/group apparently is a remnant from polymake3.0r2 There is no folder called 'group' in the bundled folder in polymake 3.1's build directory.

Uninstalled polymake, manually removed /usr/local/share/polymake/bundled/group (somehow it didn't get removed by removing polymake) then reinstalled polymake. It is working now.
