I haven't gotten around to updating OSX yet, but I have no objection to it. I guess this will be good motivation for me to get it done. Thanks! On Saturday, February 14, 2015 at 4:28:09 PM UTC-7, Volker Braun wrote: AFAIK you can't compile Sage on OSX 10.7 because of this bug. See also the

Hi, Another strange behavoir: sage: f=Piecewise([[(1/3,1/2),x]]) sage: f.extend_by_zero_to(0,1) Piecewise defined function with 3 parts, [[(0, 1/3), 0], [(1/3, 1/2), x], [(1/2, 1), 0]] sage: f.domain() (1/3, 1/2) extend_by_zero shouldn't have changed the domain to (0,1) ? sage: f.integral()
