In trying to setup development for the Sage Notebook, by following the guide
at: http://www.sagemath.org/doc/developer/sagenb/index.html , you first need
to locate the root directory of the Sage installation, SAGE_ROOT . Thats the
part where im stuck as i dont know where SAGE_ROOT is... Many other places
make reference to this place, not just the notebook. So kind of a general
dev issue. Im on ubuntu and have a development directory, just containing
the sage repository at : ~/sage , and have what is supposed to be a
non-development working stable installation of sage that was installed
using the UBUNTU PPA instructions at
http://www.sagemath.org/download-linux.html, just:
sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:aims/sagemath
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sagemath-upstream-binary
Im not sure where this installs to, what the default installation directory
is on ubuntu, or if sage installs somewhere different? If i do:
user1@computer0:~$ ./sage
bash: ./sage: Is a directory
but but if i do:
user1@computer0:~$ sage

I dont know what the difference between sage and ./sage is, but maybe
above info will help someone pinpoint where my SAGE_ROOT is? I tried alot of
searching but no luck so far.
Try typing SAGE_ROOT at the sage prompt, e.g.,
sage: SAGE_ROOT
