I have tried to install Sage in an old laptop with Lubuntu with the following three commands:
---------- $ sudo -E apt-add-repository -y ppa:aims/sagemath $ sudo -E apt-get update $ sudo -E apt-get install sagemath-upstream-binary ---------- but the last command returned ---------- Package sagemath-upstream-binary is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'sagemath-upstream-binary' has no installation candidate ---------- the first two commands ran without problems, so that the ppa repository was hit by the apt-get update command. ---------- ... Ign http://ppa.launchpad.net saucy InRelease Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net saucy Release.gpg Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net saucy Release Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net saucy/main i386 Packages ... ---------- The problem is the same as the one described here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/409372/how-one-can-install-sagemath-on-ubuntu After downloading Sage and decompressing it, I was able to run it but, I searched a lot and, until now, could not figure out what is wrong. How can I fix this? any suggestions? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
