RE: [sage-support] cygwin Sage-4.4.3 almost installed
I have tried to build again sage-4.4.3 from source and again the process has stopped at the hard link between python-2.6.exe and python.exe, but now, I could did the link between both exe's outside the installation process, now I would like to continue it from this point without doing the previous steps in order to see if I can succeed to get it built. Could you please give me some advice in that direction. Best regards, Jorge From: hnr...@hotmail.com To: sage-support@googlegroups.com Subject: [sage-support] cygwin Sage-4.4.3 almost installed Date: Mon, 18 Oct 2010 11:03:23 -0500 Dear group, I am trying to build an interchangeable sage-cygwin usb external harddrive installation, my (single-user) cygwin already runs in my windows 32B XP3, 32B windows 7 and also in windows 64B windows 7. I have tried the sage-4.4.3 cygwin binaries but didn't work, so I follow William's directives in order to build from source, I have verified the prerequisites to be installed and changed the boehm_gc, ecl, libpng and maxima spkg's for the cygwin's appropiate ones, all have compiled succesfully but the installation process is stopped suddenly because it can't create the hard link between python-2.6.exe and python.exe, in fact I have tried it directly and the answer also was that the operation is not permitted. Can you tell me how can I proceed from here.

[sage-support] list_plot libpng error: Image width or height is zero in IHDR
Bonjour, It seems to me that the following code should not give an error, even if it is true that the points to be plotted are very close to the x-axis. Maybe this is a known bug?

Then I'm REALLY glad we are changing the README in the next release! That file just gives a hypothetical name for the release so we didn't have to change it every time, incidentally. So you are saying you have the 10.6 DMG and it's throwing this error on a Snow Leopard machine? Assuming you didn't do anything weird to your Xcode (and don't have Macports/Fink), you could really just download the source and build it, of course. The .sage/ directory should be in your top level home directory. If you open Terminal, and do ls -a .sage/ you'll either get an error if it doesn't exist, or it will list things for you. You are correct that the error looks like you need to allow Sage to change the permissions. It sounds like you already know how to do this, so I would at least try chmod on that directory, which should be small if you haven't used Sage much yet. Do you have unusually strict permissions set up? - kcrisman -- 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

The problem is, this has changed back and forth and that text tries to cover both. Also, you can use the vmware image in virtualbox - I just don't know how but there are reports that it is possible. If nothing of that works fine for you, install wubi [w] on top of windows and then get the sage binary for ubuntu (or compile from source). That might be more to download, but saves you time and it runs faster ;) [w] http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/windows-installer h -- 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
[sage-support] Re: Misleading Instructions on the Windows Download Site
i believe that i noticed the same thing when I loaded sage on windows earlier this year... took me hours to realize that I was supposed to have VirtualBox and not VMware. Don't know if I just missed something either, but that at least makes two of us.
