I tried following the README in the devel/doc/ref section and am
having latex compilation problems.
First, in mwrank somewhere there is a \Sha which latex has trouble with.
Second, in sage.rings.polynomial.pbori there is a \Sage, \var{other}
and var[ring] which
I think latex doesn't like. (Could be wrong though.)
This is quite likely that I just forgot to add an r to the docstring such
that the backslashes are passed through.
Third, I think in code_constructions there is a line
ValueError including a traceback error message: x must divide x^4 -
1 which latex complains about a missing $ sign. (I'm not sure though.)
x^4 is only valid in math mode.
The problem is that when I try to correct them and rerun build_pdf, the new
corrections are not taken into account. They I went into
devel/doc/ref/sage and deleted
the corresponding *.tex files and still, the compilation failed at the
same places.
You need to edit the source (*.py, *.pyx) files rather than the TeX, so e.g.
SAGE_ROOT/devel/sage/sage/rings/polynomial/pbori.pyx
Hope that helps,
Martin
