Could I really be the first user in this vast assemblage to have an NFS-mounted home directory?
I tried building and installing sage with a local account, then just using it from my network account (which is the account I generally use). Here's the error from *that*: /tilde/janssen 34 % /local/sage-4.7.2/sage ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | Sage Version 4.7.2, Release Date: 2011-10-29 | | Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- OSError Traceback (most recent call last) /local/sage-4.7.2/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/IPython/ ipmaker.pyc in force_import(modname, force_reload) 61 reload(sys.modules[modname]) 62 else: ---> 63 __import__(modname) 64 65 /Volumes/data/local/sage-4.7.2/local/bin/ipy_profile_sage.py in <module>() 5 preparser(True) 6 ----> 7 import sage.all_cmdline 8 sage.all_cmdline._init_cmdline(globals()) 9 /local/sage-4.7.2/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/ all_cmdline.py in <module>() 12 try: 13 ---> 14 from sage.all import * 15 from sage.calculus.predefined import x 16 preparser(on=True) /local/sage-4.7.2/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/all.py in <module>() 319 # Cache the contents of star imports. 320 import sage.misc.lazy_import --> 321 sage.misc.lazy_import.save_cache_file() 322 323 /local/sage-4.7.2/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/misc/ lazy_import.so in sage.misc.lazy_import.save_cache_file (sage/misc/ lazy_import.c:4503)() 815 816 --> 817 818 819 /local/sage-4.7.2/local/lib/python/shutil.pyc in move(src, dst) 262 rmtree(src) 263 else: --> 264 copy2(src, real_dst) 265 os.unlink(src) 266 /local/sage-4.7.2/local/lib/python/shutil.pyc in copy2(src, dst) 98 dst = os.path.join(dst, os.path.basename(src)) 99 copyfile(src, dst) --> 100 copystat(src, dst) 101 102 def ignore_patterns(*patterns): /local/sage-4.7.2/local/lib/python/shutil.pyc in copystat(src, dst) 75 os.chmod(dst, mode) 76 if hasattr(os, 'chflags') and hasattr(st, 'st_flags'): ---> 77 os.chflags(dst, st.st_flags) 78 79 OSError: [Errno 45] Operation not supported: '/tilde/janssen/.sage/ _Volumes_data_local_sage-4.7.2_devel_sage-main- lazy_import_cache.pickle' Error importing ipy_profile_sage - perhaps you should run %upgrade?
