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 On Thu, Aug 18, 2016 at 5:13 PM, leif <not.rea...@online.de> wrote: > James Khan wrote: > > Hi! > > > > Thanks a lot for getting back promptly!
