Dear support group,
after typing a Yes to an update notification of Ubuntu-9.04 to 9.10 it became
unstable, first in an unnoticed way, until finally all my installation crashes
in a sudden "unable to boot".
So I reinstall linux 9.10 from zero and I also could install sage-4.3.2 from
sources successfully without any problems, while trying to install ETS perhaps
I change something unadverteadly and when starting sage again it began to send
messages about having problems with some packages, even did not recognize
python commands. So I tried to recompile again from the very beginning, but now
it cannot accomplishes the task (the message in the last occasion was something
like: configuring R with Atlas ... cannot find sources -src/include/Defn.h- ...
r-2.10.1 /src/po/R.pot ... cannot create regular file 'src/src/scripts/ no such
file or directory ... config.error cannot find sources).
So I download again the tar file and try again unsuccesfully. After many tries
I gave up and download the precompiled binary but then sending the ./sage
command the answer to it is:
r...@eolo:/opt/sage-4.3.2-linux-64bit-ubuntu_9.10-x86_64-Linux# ./sage
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sage Version 4.3.2, Release Date: 2010-02-06 |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
/opt/sage-4.3.2-linux-64bit-ubuntu_9.10-x86_64-Linux/local/bin/python: 1:
Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")
Do you have any idea how can I fix this?
Inside a sage subshell it responds, but:
r...@eolo:/opt/sage-4.3.2-linux-64bit-ubuntu_9.10-x86_64-Linux# ./sage -sh
Starting subshell with Sage environment variables set.
Be sure to exit when you are done and do not do anything
with other copies of Sage!
Bypassing shell configuration files ...
/opt/sage-4.3.2-linux-64bit-ubuntu_9.10-x86_64-Linux
sage subshell$ from math import *
from: can't read /var/mail/math
/opt/sage-4.3.2-linux-64bit-ubuntu_9.10-x86_64-Linux
sage subshell$
Or otherwise, how can I ensure to begin a new compilation with all the sage
environment variables erased, in order to make sure they don't interfere with
this new compilation (it seems to me that this is the reason why now I cannot
compile sage successfully), do I need to go back a step further and reinstall
again linux?.
Thank you in advance
Jorge
