I compiled sage from sources on a debian amd64 system, on which sage 5.12 had no problems.
Sage itself seems fine. But I had problems installng packages requiring tcl/tk. After examonation, it seems that Sage's R has lost its graphics : charpent@asus16-ec:~$ sage -R R version 3.0.2 (2013-09-25) -- "Frisbee Sailing" Copyright (C) 2013 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit) R est un logiciel libre livré sans AUCUNE GARANTIE.

R_X11.so *is* in the requested place. Bit the double slash in its path is suspicious... Note : I compiled sage in my home directory, then moved it to its intended location in /usr/local. I remember having had analogous problems with such "moved" installations of sage (pertaining to other R packages using C++ libraries). Questions : Is this a bug ? Worth a ticket ? 2) if so, should I report it ? With which tags ?
