Ahem, './sage --help'? That points you to './sage --advanced' (advanced help) as well, which gives Installing packages and upgrading: -package [args] -- call the new package manager with given arguments. Run without arguments for package-specific help. -experimental -- list all experimental packages that can be installed -f [opts] [packages]-- shortcut for -i -f: force build of the given Sage packages -i [opts] [packages]-- install the given Sage packages. Options: -c -- run the packages' test suites -d -- only download, do not install packages -f -- force build: install the packages even if they are already installed -s -- do not delete the temporary build directories after a successful build -p [opts] [packages]-- install the given Sage packages, without dependency checking and with support for old-style spkgs. Options are -c, -d and -s with the same meaning as for the -i command -info [packages] -- print the SPKG.txt of the given packages --location -- if needed, fix paths to make Sage relocatable -optional -- list all optional packages that can be installed -standard -- list all standard packages that can be installed -installed -- list all installed packages -upgrade [version] -- download, build and install the given version. Here, 'version' is a git branch or tag name. Useful values are 'master' (the current development version, this is the default) or a version number like '5.13'. -pip [...] -- invoke pip, the Python package manager besides further usage help on other topics. -leif -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
