#5900: [with patches, needs review] Add support for system python != Sage python
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Reporter: tabbott | Owner: tabbott
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: sage-4.0
Component: debian-package | Keywords:
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
On Ubuntu jaunty, the system Python is 2.6 but Sage is built with Python
2.5. This results in problems in a few places where Sage directly invokes
a python program rather than running it via python. For example, running
"trial" rather than "python $(which trial)" would result in "trial" being
started with Python 2.6.
I've attached the set of patches that I applied in order to deal with this
issue in Jaunty. I believe they should be harmless for Sage, since it
puts $SAGE_LOCAL at the start of PATH, ahead of any system copies of
trial/twistd/etc. that might exist.
