Hi, In maxima-5.16.3.p2 as distributed with sage 4.1.1 when doing the maxima tutorial, all goes well, but in my rpm, due to using system's maxima-5.19.1-2mdv2010.0 I get an error because when reaching the cell:
A.eigenvectors() maxima 5.16.3 returns: [[[0,4],[3,1]],[1,0,0,-4],[0,1,0,-2],[0,0,1,-4/3],[1,2,3,4]] while maxima 5.19.1 returns: [[[0,4],[3,1]],[[[1,0,0,-4],[0,1,0,-2],[0,0,1,-4/3]],[[1,2,3,4]]]] and then, in the next cell it gives a fatal error due to not being able to convert a list to rational. Do you have any idea as to what would be the proper way to correct this issue? Preferably without needing to use an older maxima for the sage package :-) [ I understand this is my problem due to not "always" using the sage spkgs, but I think this is also useful information for sage, and it should at least help others in watching what not to do when adding sagemath to theirs distro... ] When using maxima-5.16.3, as in, cat ~/bin/maxima: #!/bin/sh cd /home/pcpa/sage-4.1.1/local/bin LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/pcpa/sage-4.1.1/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ./maxima "$@" and putting $HOME/bin as the first $PATH entry, it works with my rpm package.
