What I have done is (this happens every time): 1. Remove $HOME/.sage 2. Reinstall Sage from PPA 3. New $HOME/.sage is root-owned. If I have an existing $HOME/.sage owned by the user, I get a root-owned file when reinstalling the PPA package: the "lazy_import_cache.pickle" file. > An update on the previous dpkg version problem.

Focus on getting this to work on Precise, and then see if we can do a source PPA. Dan -- --- Dan Drake ----- http://mathsci.kaist.ac.kr/~drake -------
