Hi! Thanks for pointing this out. I am having the same problems!
I have the most recent version of SAGE (7.2) and I have tried all the combinations suggested in this thread: TOPCOM, topcom, download the bz2 and plaving in /upstream/ but still no luck. I wonder why this is the case. I get the error message: sage-logger 'sage-spkg topcom-0.17.4.p0' '/home/sage/sage-7.2/logs/pkgs/topcom-0.17.4.p0.log' Found local metadata for topcom-0.17.4.p0 Attempting to download package topcom-0.17.4.tar.bz2 from mirrors Downloading the Sage mirror list CRITICAL [mirror_list|_refresh:164]: Downloading the mirror list failed ************************************************************************ Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/sage/sage-7.2/build/bin/../sage_bootstrap/cmdline.py", line 228, in run tarball.download() File "/home/sage/sage-7.2/build/bin/../sage_bootstrap/tarball.py", line 152, in download for mirror in MirrorList(): File "/home/sage/sage-7.2/build/bin/../sage_bootstrap/mirror_list.py", line 63, in __init__ self.mirrors = self._load() File "/home/sage/sage-7.2/build/bin/../sage_bootstrap/mirror_list.py", line 78, in _load return ast.literal_eval(mirror_list) File "/home/sage/sage-7.2/local/lib/python2.7/ast.py", line 49, in literal_eval node_or_string = parse(node_or_string, mode='eval') File "/home/sage/sage-7.2/local/lib/python2.7/ast.py", line 37, in parse return compile(source, filename, mode, PyCF_ONLY_AST) File "<unknown>", line 0 ^ SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing ************************************************************************ Error downloading topcom-0.17.4.tar.bz2 ************************************************************************ make[1]: *** [/home/sage/sage-7.2/local/var/lib/sage/installed/topcom-0.17.4.p0] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/sage/sage-7.2/build/make' real 0m10.790s user 0m6.469s sys 0m3.034s *************************************************************** Error building Sage.
