It's supposed to be liveable on Windows... "Livable" is an extremely low bar, Indeed. especially compared to the current situation for macOS users, which is that they can easily install the latest release of Sage in a familiar way (drag the app into the Applications forlder) Ah ? Where do all those "I can't install Sage on my Mac ! Help me !" messages come from ? or by running the command "brew install sage" in a terminal, if they have Homebrew. You are proposing to "improve" their situation by forcing them to install a virtual computer and then forcing them to install linux in the virtual computer and then forcing them to learn their way around linux Isn't Mac OS supposed to be Unix-based ? Where is the Unix "experience" ? so that they can install an extremely out of date version of Sage (e.g. 9.5 on Ubuntu 22.04) or use a "bleeding edge" version of linux. Or install from source on a stable version of Linux. Which seems easier than copiung with the zillion (combinatorial explosion you know...) variations opened by the various uses of Homebrew... - Marc PS Declaring "I would't touch Mac OS in a class A aseptic room..." is not likely to make many macOS users interested in your advice. Indeed. I have been on the receiving end of Mac users "needing help"... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-release" group.
