Hello, The old ubuntu apt-get packages are broken (I would help if I knew how...if I can donate time am happy to do so, but would need instruction as will be evident from my problem.)
The gfortran packages are also broken on Ubuntu repositories. Downloaded sage-4.3.1-linux-Ubuntu_9.10-x86_64-Linux.tar.lzma from JMU- VA. Checked md5sum. Unpacked to home folder. Renamed to sage. From terminal ./sage gives error: k...@bart:~/sage$ ./sage ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | Sage Version 4.3.1, Release Date: 2010-01-20 | | Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- /home/kitz/sage/local/bin/python: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") k...@bart:~/sage$ So I can not run Sage at all.
