16 Hi,
17
18 Can you make sure your ecls is from the sage-on-gentoo overlay?
19 The bits of maxima required for your example to work can only
20 be built with ecls from the overlay. In doubt do the following:
21
22 emerge -1v =ecls-12.12.1::sage-on-gentoo
23 followed by
24 emerge -1v maxima::sage-on-gentoo
25
