I can't give any specific advice about this, other than that your system version of gcc seems to be an as-yet unreleased version that might be buggier than the stable 4.7 or 4.8 series. On Mon, Jul 22, 2013 at 11:24 PM, ASageWoodpecker wrote: > Hi again, > > I got this error when sage was buildin

Hi again, I got this error when sage was building mathplotlib recursively as part of its own build. It may be an error specific to my system of my version of gcc (4.9.0 20130317 (experimental)). But if anyone has insights on this error, I'd greatly appreciate it. I haven't run into internal com

Thanks Robert. I did download the source as a fallback. But I also made a small change to my build process. I created my DOT_SAGE directory and removed the bottleneck to download the necessary packages from sagemath.org. I'd have imagined that with the user-level permissions, the install script

You can't, you have to download and unpack the source tarball http://sagemath.org/download-source.html It contains all the repositorie(s) that you can use to develop on. There's an effort to move to a single git repository that does work in the normal manner (checkout, build, etc.) https://github.

If the class is just used internally to keep track of intersections of hyperplanes then it doesn't really matter what it is called since it will not be in the global namespace. In fact, you probably only need HyperplaneArrangement constructor and the hyperplane_arrangements factory in the globa

Hi all, Coming from: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sage-support/vv6yvZMVFAQ Thanks, Rob! So it seems Sage does not interpret correctly some Maxima numbers. In particular, I have noticed two issues: 1) Big floats: sage: maxima("bfloat(2e-4)") 2.0b-4 sage: maxima("bfloat(
