New description:
The default rings `RR` and `CC` do not support eigenvalue and eigenvector
computations for all the cases. It varies from matrix to matrix, and hence
these fields shouldn't be encouraged for eigenvalue/eigenvector
computations. I am adding a patch to the tutorial which mentions `RDF` and
`CDF` as the go-to field for such computations.

Apply [attachment:trac_13657-linal_RDF.patch] to `devel/sage`. Then build
the tutorial using
{{{
sage -docbuild tutorial html
}}}

Comment:
Patch attached. Probably needs translation to other languages.
