Comment (by jhpalmieri):
If a user has never run Sage before, they will see this error when doing
`./sage -t src/sage/misc/ascii_art.py`. Once they've run Sage once, it
creates their IPython config directory, so the error doesn't occur any
more (when running vanilla `./sage -t FILE`). If they run `./sage
--nodotsage -t src/sage/misc/ascii_art.py`, though, then the error
reappears, because there is no existing IPython config directory when you
run with `--nodotsage`.
What Jeroen is saying is that all doctests should pass when you run with
`--nodotsage` (or with a different user, etc.); it's not specific to this
particular error. I suppose we could put a test like `./sage --nodotsage
-t SOME/FILE` in `tests/cmdline.py`, but that seems a little odd to me.
