Thank you for your interest in Sage! You can get the complete source for Sage to compile it on
your own Linux or Mac OS X system. Sage lives in an isolated directory and does not interfere with
your surrounding system. It ships together with everything necessary to develop Sage, the source
code, all its dependencies and the complete changelog.
Short instructions:
- Extract archive
- Start compiling: make
- Run Sage: ./sage
- Upgrade to newer version later: ./sage -upgrade
Please read the
README.txt and the
installation guide for more details. Note: On Linux systems
like Debian/Ubuntu, you may have to install the
build essential package, the
m4 macro processor, and
dpkg-dev:
sudo apt-get install build-essential m4 dpkg-dev
There is a very high level changelog.
You can browse all the
tracked source code repositories and see exactly what's going on, and who did what
when.
