After installing enough latex packages so that the docs seemed to
build, my build still fails here:

I manually deleted the relevant file

  /scratch/wstein/build/sage-4.4.4/local/share/giac/doc/aide_cas

and was able to get the build to finish.   So very close to "works first try".

How do I surpress printing when using giac?  E.g., how do I keep giac
from printing massive amounts when I do:

8>> f1:=(x+y+z+1)^20+1; p1:=normal(f1*(f1+1));
9>> factor(p1);

By the way, I tried the above and it took only 0.63 seconds, which is
very impressive (!).  It's much faster than Sage-4.4.4 and Magma.

sage: R.<x,y,z> = QQ[]
sage: f1 = (x+y+z+1)^20+1; p1=f1*(f1+1)
sage: time a = p1.factor()
CPU times: user 19.65 s, sys: 0.00 s, total: 19.65 s
Wall time: 19.68 s


sage: k=magma(p1)
sage: magma.eval('time a := Factorization(%s);'%k.name())
'Time: 9.480'
