L.S.,

When updating to Sage 3.1.2 I run into the following problem:

Am using a Mac G4 dual core, OSX 10.4.11.
Used a previous version of Sage without apparent problems. Updating to
3.1.2 however was not without hickups: copying Sage with the finder
resulted in error messages that duplicate names were not allowed.
Removing all visible traces of Sage from /Applications and then
installing with Terminal (sudo cp -R -P "/Volumes/sage-3.1.2-osx10.4-
ppc-PowerMacintosh-Darwin/" . inside the Applications folder) appeared
to work fine. Starting Sage however resulted in the following:

/Users/arnold>cd "/Applications/sage" ; "/Applications/sage/sage"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| SAGE Version 3.1.2, Release Date: 2008-09-19                       |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information.        |

The SAGE install tree may have moved.
Regenerating Python.pyo and .pyc files that hardcode the install PATH
(please wait at most a few minutes)...
Please do not interrupt this.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Applications/sage/local/bin/sage-location", line 71, in

    update_library_files(R)
  File "/Applications/sage/local/bin/sage-location", line 39, in
update_library_files
    open(LIB + F,'w').write(H)
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Applications/sage/local/lib/
libfplll.la'

sage:

Typing "notebook()" gives me a list of previous notebooks; when I open
one, type a new line and ask to evaluate nothing happens.

The error message at startup never occurred before.
What am I doing wrong?

Regards,
arnold
