Thank you for the response. I tried installing Sage from Binary and it was successful.
However, i still get error messages when trying to run the commands to install this optional package i keep talking about. sage --package fix-checksum conjecturing sage-run received unknown option: --package usage: sage [options] Try 'sage -h' for more information. Also, to answer your other question, the optional package i'm trying to install is not listed in http://files.sagemath.org/spkg/upstream/ Here is the package i'm referring to, https://nvcleemp.github.io/conjecturing/#installing-in-sage I hope this gives you a better idea of what i'm trying to do. -Jose On Sun, Mar 31, 2019 at 7:07 AM slelievre <samuel.lelie...@gmail.com> wrote: > For Ubuntu 18.04 you have several choices including > > - aptitude: apt install sagemath-jupyter > - conda: conda install sagemath > - binary: download from > http://www.sagemath.org/download-linux.html > then pick mirror, pick 64-bit, pick Sage 8.7 Ubuntu 18.04 > - build from source > > Using the binary from the SageMath download page will > let you install extra packages, so you don't have to build > from source. > > See > > http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/ > > for the prerequisites; there are some prerequisites for using > SageMath installed from a binary, and more prerequisites if > you want to build from source, the details are at > > http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/binary.html > http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/source.html > > Also, can you say more about the optional package you are > trying to install?
