Hello folks, this is 2.10.1.alpha1. This is the fruit of two days merging quite a number of patches and I had planned to release this about 24 hours ago, but ran into some very odd segfault in one of the doctests. After applying another bunch of patches it went away. The interesting bit was that it segfaulted when running in normal mode, but was fine with either verbose mode or under gdb.
The patches merged are all over the map and especially the merge of William's plot patches proved to be painful since Robert WB's last minute patch touched the same file and interacted badly. Aside from that we merge many patches that improved doctesting by Craig Citro (brought the modular directory up to 100% coverage), William Stein and Martin Albrecht. There are still more of those patches to merge, so coverage should go up even more until the release. For the people who prefer to use their system ATLAS Josh Kantor and I introduced the SAGE_ATLAS_LIB env variable which should point to the base of the ATLAS install, i.e. if you installed ATLAS into /usr/local/atlas-3.8.0 that is what SAGE_ATLAS_LIB should be set to. The pretuned profiles for Athlons and Pentium Ms didn't make it into this release, but will be in alpha2. The toybuchberger doctest currently fails spectacularly, but aside from that all doctests should work. I am assuming that Martin Albrecht will fix that one easily once he is able to reproduce it. Last, but not least I would like to point out the people who tirelessly reviewed patches like William Stein, Craig Citro, Mike Hansen, Martin Albrecht and especially Nick Alexander who by himself maybe reviewed more patches than the other reviewers combined in this release cycle. It is of vital importance to the Sage project that we review patches and I cannot express my gratitude enough. Apologies to any reviewer I forgot. Like last time I added a list of tickets with patches that need review to the end of this messsage.
