Yep, that's what it looks like... What I would do is build the latest Sage from source. It may take a couple of hours, but you can do that in the background while you work on something else, or while you're sleeping. Given the binary incompatibility, and that you've had issues before, I wouldn't just - upgrade. Note that you can install the new sage parallel to the one you have so you don't have to disrupt your current installation (though you won't be able to have the notebook open in each unless you make sure they're in different folders and on different ports. To be safe, you could just avoid opening the notebook in the new sage until you're ready to switch over, as it will attempt to update the storage format because of architectural changes in sage 4.1.2). This way you can get Cython to work (I hope) and make sure all your other stuff works fine too before switching over. - Robert -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
