I installed sage-3.2 from source on an Ubuntu machine, and when I do $./sage -optional
I get the error below. I can download directly (using a browser for example) and install the downloaded packages. This is on my home network where I have never had a problem using macs. Changing the SAGE_SERVER variable doesn't help. Anyway here is the error: Using SAGE Server http://www.sagemath.org//packages http://www.sagemath.org//packages/optional/list --> /home/pmc/m/ sage-3.2/tmp/list [Errno socket error] (-2, 'Name or service not known') ******************************************************************************** Error contacting http://www.sagemath.org//packages/optional/list. Try using an alternative server. For example, from the bash prompt try typing export SAGE_SERVER=http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ then try again. ******************************************************************************** On Nov 27, 12:19 am, mabshoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED] dortmund.de> wrote: > On Nov 25, 7:31 pm, Marshall Hampton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I'm having this problem on a computer I don't usually use, a laptop > > running Ubuntu 7.10.
