http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10968 Note that another ticket http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9032 which was closed (I gave it positive review), was not a complete cure, but the patch reduced the number of failures from 12 to 2. I know the MMA interface was broken for some time, as the optional packages were not being tested. > I'm not aware of a single aspect of the Sage <--> Mathematica > interface that is version or operating system dependent.
