Hi!

Many thanks for your message and kind help.

I am running virtual machine on windows 7 and the sage 7.3 link is not
ready yet (the source code is there but not the sage-7.3.ova) so I am stuck
with 7.2 for the time being :(
I have indeed tried ./sage -i TOPCOM versus "-i topcom" and then also have
tried putting the 0.17.7.tar.bz2 into the /upstream/  folder, but neither
worked :(
I have also tried " ./sage -f
http://files.sagemath.org/spkg/upstream/topcom/topcom-0.17.7.tar.bz2"; but
also no luck.

I have included the full output the error when I do "sage -i topcom"  if
that helps?

thank you for your help,

James
