The tarball is corrupted. It worked fine for installs on OS X and a Ubuntu VM, but the MD5 changed when I moved it to the EeePC. I'll report success or failure, after I get a good tarball on the EeePC. This is the second time I've gotten bitten by tarballs with bad MD5s. There has got to be a better file format to use - something where the archive validity can be checked before launching into a long install. -- Kevin Horton Ottawa, Canada --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
