Many thanks for that. Not sure what to do now - any further help really 
appreciated.


I installed Fortran as you indicated but unfortunately sage still will not 
run.
After some messages with paths involving python, it gives :

- - - - 
Saved trace to /home/sum/.sage/crash_logs/crash_xupMWZ.log
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unhandled SIGILL: An illegal instruction occurred.
This probably occurred because a *compiled* module has a bug
in it and is not properly wrapped with sig_on(), sig_off().
Python will now terminate.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Illegal instruction (core dumped)."
- - - - -


Unfortunately the crash logs have zero file length (i.e. empty). (The first 
time a Ubuntu report widow also came up and also mentioned python, but 
didn't show itself again.)

Possibly useful further info:

- the last two messages before the above output was
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf0)[0x7f8d72aed830]
python(_start+0x29)[0x400759]

- I put sage in and am running it from a directory hanging off my home for 
now, rather than putting it somewhere else and using symlinks (but the 
problem is not that it can't find things).
