Now, I already have Maxima, Axiom, Pari/GP, and Python; is it possible to just install some sort of core Sage from source code, and still have the interfaces to the other CAS's? No, unfortunately that isn't possible.

In my case, I use some python packages that are not included in Sage. It is very to solve the problem to enhance the python computing over Sage: just create link from system to sage directory, This is possible to reduce disk space a little. And it is possible to upgrade additional packages and Sage partly. I also use such method to extend Maxima since some function needed in my system. Hope this can help. cch --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

Hope this can help. cch Using Sage in a more modular fashion is possible, but you really have to know what you are doing. Many of the components in Sage contain bug fixes from upstream, so using system components will expose you to subtle bugs. The only way to be reasonably sure that things more or less work as expected is to see if your Sage passes make check, but even that is no guarantee that Sage will just work.
