Ok, I will install that db next time I test. At least the first two
failure were related to some printing changes in 2.9:

File "tut.py", line 3390:
    : G
Expected:
    Group([ (1,2,3)(4,5), (3,4) ])
Got:
    Group( [ (1,2,3)(4,5), (3,4) ] )
**********************************************************************
File "tut.py", line 3392:
    : G.Center()
Expected:
    Group(())
Got:
    Group( () )

Those are easy enough to fix.

Nope, I looked and the maxima failures were all in plotting code, most
likely related to the fact that I did run the test of an ssh connect
without exporting X over ssh at the same time.

I think William reported something similar. To fix it see the faq,
specifically:

# QUESTION: Upgrading Sage went fine, but now the banner still shows
the old version. How can I fix this?
# ANSWER: Try doing sage: hg_scripts.merge() followed by sage:
hg_scripts.commit().
