If you change that to "--python3" it should be OK. I guess we can have two kernel specs: sage/Py3 and sage/Py3. [on a different note, it would also be useful to use a "sage" executable that can figure out $SAGE_ROOT from scratch. Then the kernelspec is usable with arbitrary jupyters] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
