It can become an optional spkg as soon as we figure out a robust way to install it with the binary distributions.
The main problem is that it's not a very standard Python package, as its installation involves generation of Python source from .dtx files by TeX. So, if we make it into a PyPI package, a custom build step has to be added into setup.py Meanwhile, please review the update to 3.6, which includes contributions from SciPy's @pv. https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/32887 Dima On Mon, 6 Dec 2021, 09:55 Emmanuel Charpentier, < emanuel.charpent...@gmail.com> wrote: > Having a *standard* way to integrate Sage’s results in a document is > **crucial*. > > So -1. > > Counter-proposal : add a pseudo-package à la tinytex > <https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/tinytex/index.html> (which tests > for a local TeX installation, and install a minimal TeX if necessary). > > Other possible alternatives : PythonTeX > <https://github.com/gpoore/pythontex> (slightly more general, accepts > more languages), codebraid <https://github.com/gpoore/codebraid> (a > budding equivalent to PythonTeX using Markdown as a markup language).
