William,
sage-2.5.alpha3 successfully passes all tests on my x86-Linux and x86_64-Linux machines. (I believe this is the first time that sage has passed ALL the tests for me. Yeah!) It fails the following two tests on my ia64-Linux machine: devel/sage-main/sage/plot/plot.py *** *** Error: TIMED OUT! *** *** devel/sage-main/sage/schemes/elliptic_curves/ell_generic.py First error message is: File "ell_generic.py", line 220: sage: eqn = symbolic_expression(E); eqn Exception raised: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/docte st.py", line 1212, in __run compileflags, 1) in test.globs File "<doctest __main__.example_4[2]>", line 1, in <module> eqn = symbolic_expression(E); eqn###line 220: sage: eqn = symbolic_expression(E); eqn File "sage_object.pyx", line 87, in sage_object.SageObject.__repr__ File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/calculus/equations.py", line 114, in _repr_ return "%s%s%s" %(paren(self._left), symbols[self._op], paren(self._righ t)) File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/calculus/equations.py", line 70, in paren return '(%s)'%repr(x) File "sage_object.pyx", line 87, in sage_object.SageObject.__repr__ File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/calculus/calculus.py", line 2530, in _repr_ return self.simplify()._repr_(simplify=False) File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/calculus/calculus.py", line 1750, in simplify S = evaled_symbolic_expression_from_maxima_string(self._maxima_init_()) File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/calculus/calculus.py", line 4555, in evaled_symbolic_expression_fr om_maxima_string return symbolic_expression_from_maxima_string(maxima.eval(x)) File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/interfaces/expect.py", line 506, in eval return '\n'.join([self._eval_line(L) for L in code.split('\n') if L != ' ']) File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/interfaces/maxima.py", line 531, in _eval_line self._sendline(line) File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/interfaces/maxima.py", line 424, in _sendline self._sendstr(str) File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/interfaces/maxima.py", line 429, in _sendstr self._start() File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/interfaces/maxima.py", line 414, in _start Expect._start(self) File "/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site- packages/sage/interfaces/expect.py", line 317, in _start raise RuntimeError, "Unable to start %s"%self.__name RuntimeError: Unable to start maxima When I run /home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.alpha3-ia64-Linux/local/bin/ maxima I get the maxima startup banner.
