Bill,
Below is the spkg-install script that I used. It appeared to work but
was not tested extensively. I am now trying to figure out what changed
between yesterday and today to break my install. I had simple examples
working yesterday but now I get an error “TypeError: Unable to start
fricas”. I have no idea why. In any case, perhaps you will have better
luck.
I left the part about the 'axiom' script alone.
Cheers,
Adam Webb
