These two lines shouldn't be invoking maxima at all, and work for me.
Are you sure it's not something else. Was x something other than the
variable x?
I tried running
reset()
first, and then
K.<a> = NumberField(x^2 + 1)
a^2
I now get a different error, here: http://pastebin.com/ADVpYi94
Re-installing Sage is unlikely to change anything,
I'm currently downloading the newer version, so I'll see if that
helps.
Yes, upgrading Sage to a more recent version should help (a lot).
I should probably also download the newest version of python,
but I don't know if that will break anything else (since it isn't
backward compatibly with everything).
The binaries on sagemath.org come with their on Python, so it won't
interfere with (or need) the system one. BTW, my "uninstallation"
procedure only applies to the non apt-get version.
