That will fail if $0 is a symlink, because `dirname $0` will get the directory that contains the symlink itself and not its target. Our installation instructions suggest creating such a symlink: https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/source.html I don't have much nice to say about that installation procedure, but running sage from a symlink is something that should be supported regardless of how it was installed. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
