Thanks for your detailed answer. However my problem is not yet solved. I
noticed that by using the command
sudo mount -v -o remount,rw /dev/shm
I got the desired result (so that response of "mount | grep shm" is "tmpfs
on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)"); unfortunately this modification goes away on
reboot. After reboot I tried to build sage by make command and again got
the same error as in my first post. I repeated sudo mount command as you
suggested and without reboot, tried "make" command. This time some error
message was there with suggestion that I use command ./sage -ba which I
did. The command worked apparently without problem and the last three lines
reported were:

I thought that sage was installed without problem but when tried the
command ./sage the response was:
