The patch {{{1389-scripts.patch}}} looks good to me. However, when I
applied {{{1389-scripts.patch}}} against sage-3.1.4 using the command
{{{hg_scripts.patch("<path-to>/1389-scripts.patch")}}}, the following
section from the patch was rejected:
{{{

It seems that the script
{{{
sage-3.1.4/local/bin/sage-banner
}}}
that's shipped with sage-3.1.4 contains the line
{{{
SAGE Version 3.1.4, Release Date: 2008-10-20
}}}
and NOT
{{{
SAGE Version 3.1.4, Release Date: 2008-10-16
}}}
Notice the different release dates, which I think accounts for the said
rejection. By the way, I fetched the sage-3.1.4 source distribution from
{{{
http://freethemes.mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/sage/src/sage-3.1.4.tar
}}}
So if we're going to fix the citation of Sage in the script
{{{sage-3.1.4/local/bin/sage-banner}}}, then assuming you're working with
sage-3.1.4, here's a suggestion:
{{{
-| SAGE Version 3.1.4, Release Date: 2008-10-20 |
+| Sage Version 3.1.4, Release Date: 2008-10-20 |
}}}
