Michael, William, Thank you so much for the suggestions. I will re-install pexpect and see if it helps. Yes, I am getting closer to the end (~60-70 packages built) but without pexpect/gap it is difficult to get sage to boot up. I will meet and speak to Jose this week and request that you get accounts on their IBM AIX and Linux system. There may be some delay due to the paperwork involved, but it would be great if we can add support for these systems in the sage repository. I have also ported sage to ppc64 Linux at their center. I will keep you posted on the progress on AIX. Thanks! - Sameer
