The problem is that you're using a version from 2005.
Axiom is released every 2 months. You can get the version
information from the banner:
AXIOM Computer Algebra System
Version: Axiom (November 2009)
Timestamp: Thursday April 8, 2010 at 18:12:43
This tells you the month and year of your build (November 2009)
and the date it was compiled (April 8, 2010)
Version 3.9 is a versioning scheme that has not been used for many years.
Unfortunately Ubuntu is using debian's distribution of Axiom.
I'm not a debian authorized developer so I can't fix it.
And I can't get them to either update it or delete it.
