It is possible that the /tmp installation is broken anyway. With setuptools-3.6 I get 4 out of 4 failures because some paths point back to the original sage/ directory, but some not and the underlying files are not there (numpy for example). Moreover, none of the 6.2 TestsPassed runs (n=47) is an unsafe ticket and thus a /tmp install.
The snapshot method proposed in another thread gets increasingly attractive to me. On Friday, May 16, 2014 3:58:21 PM UTC+2, Peter Bruin wrote: > > It would be great if that worked.
