pip install sagemath-standard
already works in a venv on a box with enough deps
installed. Takes lot of time. To fix this,
anyhow, someone has to make their hands dirty and do to Lisp interface what's
done to Pari/GP (cypari)
PPL (pplpy), primecount (primecountpy), etc.
Apart from Lisp, there is GAP (with the corresponding effort stalled).
That's what is much more urgent than attempting to slice up the maths
functionality of sagelib.
