Back in January, Mike Abshoff announced that there would be a collection of old Sage releases kept on sage.math, for testing purposes.
Yesterday I wanted to use one of these, and I found that several of them didn't work -- there seems to be some kind of version incompatibility going on: davidloeff...@sage:/disk/scratch/mabshoff-sage-releases$ sage-2.6/sage ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | SAGE Version 2.6, Release Date: 2007-06-02 | | Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- <type 'exceptions.ImportError'> Traceback (most recent call last) /disk/scratch/mabshoff-sage-releases/sage-2.6/local/bin/<string> in <module>() /disk/scratch/mabshoff-sage-releases/sage-2.6/local/lib/python2.5/site- packages/sage/misc/preparser_ipython.py in <module> () 6 ########################################################################### 7 ----> 8 import sage.misc.interpreter 9 10 import preparser /disk/scratch/mabshoff-sage-releases/sage-2.6/local/lib/python2.5/site- packages/sage/misc/interpreter.py in <module> () 102 103 import os --> 104 import log 105 106 from IPython.iplib import InteractiveShell /disk/scratch/mabshoff-sage-releases/sage-2.6/local/lib/python2.5/site- packages/sage/misc/log.py in <module>() 51 52 import interpreter ---> 53 import latex 54 import misc 55 /disk/scratch/mabshoff-sage-releases/sage-2.6/local/lib/python2.5/site- packages/sage/misc/latex.py in <module> () 41 import random 42 ---> 43 import sage.plot.all 44 45 from misc import tmp_dir /disk/scratch/mabshoff-sage-releases/sage-2.6/local/lib/python2.5/site- packages/sage/plot/all.py in <module>() 2 text, circle, disk, hue, graphics_array, 3 list_plot, networkx_plot, parametric_plot, 4 polar_plot, contour_plot, arrow, 5 plot_vector_field, matrix_plot, bar_chart, 6 is_Graphics, /disk/scratch/mabshoff-sage-releases/sage-2.6/local/lib/python2.5/site- packages/sage/plot/plot.py in <module> () 130 import pdb 131 --> 132 from sage.structure.sage_object import SageObject 133 134 ## IMPORTANT: Do not import matplotlib at module scope.
