Did you build from source or download a binary? The usual reccomenedation when people get problems is to build Sage from source code. That normallly works without problems. You are unlikely to need to install any other packages, as Sage comes with most things included - even a compiler! (At leat I think the compiler is included now - it certainly will be soon if it is not already) Dave Dave -- 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
