I am just starting with sage. I type a url into firefox to start the
notebook on a local machine.
I typed: install_package('lie-2.2.2.p3')
and got along error message.
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/sage/sage-4.4.2/tmp/list'
I assume this is a local problem.
You are not allowed to install packages system-wide. If you can be
admin on that computer, do
sudo su
and try again. If not, contact the admin.
Alternatively, you could install and use your own personal copy of
Sage in your home directory.
