I just want to record in this thread that just now when preparing the Ubuntu-based VirtualBox Sage for Windows, I built sage-4.3.4. I then did "sage -upgrade", and the result did not work due to some weird iconv issue that appeared when importing the Sage library. I then manually forced installation of the iconv spkg (even though it is supposed to be disabled on Ubuntu), and then everything worked. So probably we're still going to have trouble with 4.3.5 and iconv. -- William -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org To unsubscribe, reply using "remove me" as the subject.
