Should I uninstall atlas if I want to check your patch for the future version? Atlas is installed system wide on my computer, and linbox seemed to have found those libraries as it compiled afterward. Is there a way to force linbox to compile against the local version? Cheers, Soroosh On Tue, Mar

Hello folks, it seems that things have slowed down a little in Sage devel land due to Easter and/or Spring Break. But there are still plenty of patches in trac that deserve to be looked at and merged. While no hard date has been set for the 2.11 release we should start winding down the merges and

That's good -- I wrote to Larry pointing out that his algorithm for point-counting on elliptic curves over finite fields was a bit misleading, which we have discovered on sage-devel when someone implemented it and found that it did not work as advertised. So in the new edition he corrects that an

Regarding Jason's recent patch allowing sage: plot(x^(1/3),-1,1) to still output a plot where it makes sense in Sage, I wonder whether the following might also be useful in the _call() method of plot.py, at around line 3620: if msg = "negative number cannot be raised to a fractional power" :
