But not write? Then there is the underlying reason why meataxe doesn't work. I created the SharedMeatAxe wrapper under the assumption that a user has write permissions in DOT_SAGE. > I'm wondering which other packages depend on it... p_group_cohomology. I guess that's all. And of course matrix arithmetic over non-prime finite fields is a lot faster with MeatAxe as backend than with Sage's generic matrix implementation (that is used when MeatAxe is not installed). > I'll try to install MeatAxe again, though.

I don't believe the installation is broken. It is just that the installation relies on a contract that is broken on CoCalc (if missing write permission to DOT_SAGE is the problem).
