I believe that some doctests explicitly start up maxima not via maxima_lib (as opposed to some perhaps silently doing this #17753), maybe in the tutorial or constructions documents. I think it would be reasonable to replace some of those if they are causing problems. But there is no reason to *remove* the pexpect, just to make Sage not dependent upon it for any "normal" operations. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
