Thanks for the help. I was trying to avoid building Sage from source
as I am not all that Linux-literate, but I did try the current source
and it compiled and ran OK except for not creating .html files as

'makefile' v4.7 or later is needed to make HTML docs but missing on
your system

Apparently this is a known lack in Ubuntu which can easily be fixed
but maybe should be added to the list of assumptions for an
installation from source.
