There is no completely trivial way to "start over". I think you could do the following though, which isn't too complicated: cd SAGE_ROOT/devel mv doc-main doc-something # doc-something could be anything you want rm doc # delete symlink ../sage -f doc-2.9.1.spkg # install fresh doc-main where doc-2.9.1 is the version of doc you want to start fresh with. Please report back whether this works for you or not. -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://sage.math.washington.edu/sage/ and http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
