 > Just for the record: I again did a fresh build of Sage 4.5.3, renamed
 the directory and then upgraded to Sage 4.6.alpha'''2''' with the
 (previous) test upgrade path (on Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64).

 Meaning: Did anybody test the alpha2 upgrade path? (I don't see reports
 here.)

 > The upgrade failed in the first place, I then "successfully" ran
 {{{make}}} (all new packages are present) and now I get lots of doctest
 errors ({{{ptestlong}}}).

 > More to come (still running)

 {{{
 The following tests failed:

         sage -t  -long devel/sage/sage/plot/misc.py # 4 doctests failed
         sage -t  -long devel/sage/sage/plot/plot.py # 12 doctests failed
 }}}
 At least some end like this:
