That's right. I was building in /usr/local as sudo. I used to always do that. And did upgrade to 6.2 which was running fine.
Now, I had a doubt about some strange way why this package alone was behaving so. Because distutils is part of the python distribution. And finding python and missing distutils! So, I did $make in my home directory and it did find distutils. $sage sage:notebook() The notebook files are stored in: sage_notebook.sagenb ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Open your web browser to http://localhost:8080 │ │ │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ Executing twistd --pidfile="sage_notebook.sagenb/sagenb.pid" -ny "sage_notebook.sagenb/twistedconf.tac" /usr/local/sage-6.4/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Crypto/Util/number.py:57: PowmInsecureWarning: Not using mpz_powm_sec. You should rebuild using libgmp >= 5 to avoid timing attack vulnerability. _warn("Not using mpz_powm_sec. You should rebuild using libgmp >= 5 to avoid timing attack vulnerability.", PowmInsecureWarning) I suppose that is not a serious error. But I had to copy/move 8.8GB to /usr/local where I have sage versions. I did not think this is a very good thing to do. Moreover, an open-source software which does not take advantage of the libraries of open-source OS and creating a bulky tree is not consistent with the philosophy of open source computing. I have attached the file created after running the command $ diff /usr/local/sage-6.4/local/lib/python2.7 /usr/lib/python2.7 > python2.7vsPython2.7 Best regards & thanks.
