If your sage starts without an error about failing to import crypt, then your build is OK as regards the python on Ubuntu 11.04 issue. The fix is in sage 4.7 due out very soon. Currently sage 4.6.2 finishes building python on Ubuntu 11.04 without exiting, but fails to build the crypt module. You can even use much of sage, but not the notebook, and with the 'import crypt failed' error whenever you start sage. The new python spkg fixes the issue, and will exit on any platform if the crypt module fails to build. (make testlong doesn't show this error; it is a python build issue) Anyone who built sage 4.6.2 on Ubuntu 11.04 can in the meantime (until sage 4.7), after having built sage by running make, fix their installation with sage -f http://users.aims.ac.za/~jan/python-2.6.4.p10.spkg Regards, Jan -- .~. /V\ Jan Groenewald /( )\ www.aims.ac.za ^^-^^ -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
