Hi, somehow related to that issue, i just gave some tutorials about Sage in Esfahan (Iran) for a research school about tilings [1]. Since windows was deployed there, we used the Sage Debian Live USB to run Sage [2]. I was requested by some participants to install SageManifolds. Here is a way, open a terminal and type:
cd /opt/sagemath/sage wget http://sagemanifolds.obspm.fr/spkg/sm-install.sh chmod +x sm-install.sh ./sm-install.sh keep dir /opt/sagemath The last line adds a squashfs layer to the current one(s) so that the changes related to SageManifolds will remain available for further reboots. Note that the (compressed) layer takes slightly less than 100M because the documentation is rebuilt. If you just want to try SageManifolds without modifying the default Sage install, it suffice to type the first four lines, so that the changes won't be kept for next reboot. Note also that this installation will not be transferred during a clone or upgrade of the key, since those operations aim at providing an unmodified version of SDL to the target key.
