Hi: I upgraded my phemon chip box to amd64 ubuntu 9.04 (jaunty jackalope) from 8.10. This is a brief report of its effect on Sage.
The upgrade took 12 hours. The Sage binaries for 8.10 seem to run without problems. I installed sage 3.0.5 using "sudo apt-get install sagemath". It seems to have installed okay but got this eror towards the end: " ... Processing triggers for python-support ... Compiling /var/lib/python-support/python2.6/pyscript/groups.py ... SyntaxError: ('invalid syntax', ('/var/lib/python-support/python2.6/pyscript/groups.py', 390, 6, " as = options.get('as', a2)\n")) Processing triggers for libc6 ... ldconfig deferred processing now taking place Processing triggers for menu ... " It's great having Sage available from apt-get. Many thanks to Tim Abbott for doing such a great job. As a minor suggestion, I wonder if it is possible to add Sage as a menu item in the next version? - David Joyner --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
