Well, you can retry by simply renaming the `$SAGE_ROOT` directory. ;-)
> If I have the symlink, then it does work fine, irrespective of the
system wide sage installation. I know that it uses the sage (at least the
notebook) from the directory ~/Installations, since I am running the
rkirov-flask notebook in that directory. But you are right, there might be
other things which are getting mixed up. I will simply try recompiling the
local sage installation again.
You could just rename your system-wide `sage` command, in `/usr/bin/` or
`/usr/local/bin/` I guess. (`command -v sage` should show which one is
used when you're outside the separate Sage installation.)
