I was installing two optional spkgs, gap_packages and database_gap onto a new Sage install on a new machine. The second one (database_gap) failed:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/jec/packages/sage-5.11.rc0/local/bin/sage-eval", line 13, in <module> eval(compile(s,'<cmdline>','exec')) File "<cmdline>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/jec/packages/sage-5.11.rc0/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sage/interfaces/gap.py", line 1481, in gap_reset_workspace for F in os.listdir(GAP_DIR): OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/jec/.sage/gap' but succeeded after I created ~/.sage/gap manually. To me this looks like a bug in database_gap's install scripts. The maintinaers are listed as * William Stein * Robert Miller * David Joyner * Dmitrii Pasechnik Any comments?
