1 Dear all,
2 this is my first post to gentoo-science and I am writing because I have some
3 problems running experimental code from the sage project.
4 My issue is the following:
5 I have sci-mathematics/sage-4.7-r2 installed from the sage-on-gentoo overlay
6 and I would like to install the combinat queue; I am following these
7 instructions: http://wiki.sagemath.org/combinat/MercurialStepByStep
8 The command I am supposed to run is
9 # sage -combinat install
10 unfortunately -combinat is not recognized by sage as a valid option. I
11 browsed a little bit around the filesystem and I noticed that $SAGE_ROOT is
12 empty (except for some documentation) while on other installations of sage
13 (not using the ebuilds) there is plenty of stuff including a devel/combinat
14 folder.
15 Is there an option I can use when installing sage to allow for experimental
16 sources? or is there any other way I can use queues without installing sage
17 not using portage?
18 Thanks
19 VulK
