Hi Denny,

Have you built any local python versions? What is root's default python version? Or can you move your /usr/local or /root/.local out of the way and try

dpkg --configure -a

The main error is ImportError: No module named _struct, which a quick google shows other people have had unrelated to sage.
Is Linux Mint 17 based on Ubuntu 14.04? (Or later?)

Some people fixed this by reinstalling python and python-support or by removing python-idle

sudo apt-get --reinstall install python python-support
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/150106/importerror-no-module-named-struct-error-when-managing-packages

Does your system python give an error on this?

from _struct import *

Regards,

Jan

hi Jan,

Yes, Mint is based on Ubuntu and I found the same website. I tried the same commands, but it changed nothing.

=============
# python
Python 2.7.6 (default, Mar 22 2014, 22:59:56)
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from _struct import *
>>>
=============

I have only Python packages installed, via Apt:

ii  python                                                2.7.5-5ubuntu3                                      amd64        interactive high-level object-oriented language (default version)
ii  python3                                               3.4.0-0ubuntu2                                      amd64        interactive high-level object-oriented language (default python3 version)

for the moment, I remove the package completely.

Hi Denny,

I'm happy to assist with further debugging.

You can probably still find the deb in /var/cache/apt/archives/ and unpack it elsewhere with, say, mkdir /tmp/sage; dpkg -x sagemath-upstream-binary_6.7ppa4_amd64.deb /tmp/sage/

and cd into that to try run /tmp/sage/usr/bin/sage to find out more.

Regards,

Jan

Reproduced on Ubuntu 14.04.2. The same thing happens for the "unpack
elsewhere" method.

Furthermore, it seems that all built-in Python modules are not imported
correctly.

All the modules that fail to be imported (_struct, _collections and select)

Can you run

I get the same if I apt-get upgrade instead of dpkg -i sagemath*deb (which I did to test). You might in the meantime fix it by

sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/sagemath*6.7ppa4*deb

Regards,

Jan

[Jan Groenewald]

No, it doesn't fix it, but it helps me narrow down the problem.

Will see how quickly I can fix it.

Greetings-

I've had the same issue installing sage 6.7 from the Ubuntu PPA on two different computers - one for which sage was previously installed, and the other where sage was being installed for the first time. Both computers are running Ubuntu 14.04. (Incidentally, things worked fine yesterday with version 6.6.)

Best,

Jeremy Rouse

[Erick Matsen]

I wasn't especially thoughtful about this, but a simple copy paste of 

sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/sagemath*6.7ppa4*deb

did not lead to happiness for me (running Xubuntu Trusty):

Hi

I'm working on this but compressing, building debs, and uploading takes quite long. Any feedback on any new version working or not working is useful.

If I don't have it working by end of weekend I'll probably revert to 6.6 with a version number like 6.7ppa14revertsage6.6 in the PPA and make a new dev PPA.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Regards,

Jan

Ubuntu 14.04.2, tried upgrading to 6.7ppa6 (from 6.7ppa4), still not working.

By the way, since no one else has mentioned, upon FIRST attempt to upgrade, the log actually has 3 more lines:

It has the "The Sage installation tree has moved..." line. Don't know whether it'll be useful though.

Thanks.

[Jan Groenewald]

The sage installation tree has moved is *probably* unrelated. It always says that on upgrade. I suspect two possibilities

1) it is from Thierry's binary not a buildslave binary

2) I changed the dpkg-source format from quilt to native to solve (1)'s impact on dpkg, and at the same time removed .git (had to) and then much more unneeded files.

6.7ppa7 is uploading with all the build and config and other folders back in the package (but not all the languages in docs). Should be there soon. I can still try going back to 6.6 to test that. Since the PPA is now broken:(, I might as well upload my tests there.

If someone wants the working deb, it is at: https://launchpad.net/~aims/+archive/ubuntu/sagemath/+build/7362961/+files/sagemath-upstream-binary_6.6ppa1_amd64.deb

You can download and dpkg -i that for a working installation (I think)

Jan

Thanks Jan!  I was having the same issue with 6.7.  The 6.6 deb you posted installed fine.

Best,
Dow Drake

[Jan Groenewald]

Hi

Unfortunately 6.7ppa8revert6.6 has the same problem :( You should be able to do

sudo apt-get install sagemath-upstream-binary=6.6ppa1
sudo apt-mark hold sagemath-upstream-binary

to have a working system while the PPA is broken. Once it is fixed, I will let you know, you can,

sudo apt-mark hold sagemath-upstream-binary

I'll be looking for apt/dpkg/ppa help from colleagues over the next week to try and get a fixed version, any version, in the PPA, to prevent breaking further people's installations. To prevent this in future, we'll probably start a separate development PPA. Apologies for the inconvenience. There will be maybe only one more test this weekend; 6.7ppa9revert6.6 where I try a dpkg quilt format rather than native.

Volker, I would very much like to get the buildslave binaries from snapperkob to test. Will they be uploaded to the sagemath download mirror (even though Thierry's binaries are there already)?

Regards,

Jan

[Jan Groenewald]

Where of course the command to unhold in future is "unhold", not "hold".

Regards,

Jan

[Erick Matsen]

For what it's worth, I did not have success on Xubuntu 14.04 with 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:aims/sagemath

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install sagemath-upstream-binary=6.6ppa1

It reported that the package version was not found. 

But I did succeed with downloading the deb from the link above and calling

sudo dpkg -i sagemath-upstream-binary_6.6ppa1_amd64.deb

[Frederic Durodie]

 Hi,

Obviously confronted with the same issue since an update last Thursday, I tried to revert as you posted above:

sudo apt-get install sagemath-upstream-binary=6.6ppa1
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree      
Reading state information... Done
E: Version ‘6.6ppa1’ for ‘sagemath-upstream-binary’ was not found

Could you tell me how to install the previous version on Ubuntu 14.04 ?
Thanks

[Jan Groenewald]

Hi

OK, I think since I did the install  =6.6ppa1 succesfully myself, the PPA has deleted superseded versions.

Instead do

wget https://launchpad.net/~aims/+archive/ubuntu/sagemath/+build/7362961/+files/sagemath-upstream-binary_6.6ppa1_amd64.deb

sudo dpkg -i https://launchpad.net/~aims/+archive/ubuntu/sagemath/+build/7362961/+files/sagemath-upstream-binary_6.6ppa1_amd64.deb

sudo apt-mark hold sagemath-upstream-binary

There is a dpkg alternative to hold if this apt-mark hold fails.

Regards,

Jan

sudo apt-mark hold sagemath-upstream-binary

 Should the middle line be

    sudo dpkg -i sagemath-upstream-binary_6.6ppa1_amd64.deb

How will I know when unhold?

[Jan Groenewald]

Yes, thank you for the correction.

We will announce here when to unhold and are working on it constantly.

If there is something i can do to help finding the issue, please do not
hesitate to ask. Note that the binaries i am producing are made with
SAGE_FAT_BINARY='yes' SAGE_INSTALL_GCC='yes' in particular, libgfortran is
not required since fortran is built as a part of Sage. Ptestlong did not
report any reproducible error and i can use the produced
Debian/jessie/32bit binary in Sage Debian Live without problem.

Ciao,
Thierry

Hi Thierry,

The binaries have not done anything wrong (except perhaps confuse dpkg-source because it comes from a different location). dpkg-source is the real culprit.

Hi

There is a new working deb on the Sage PPA (sage 6.6, our version 6.7ppa10revert6.6.aims6-2).

We also have a separate sage-dev repository: https://launchpad.net/~aims/+archive/ubuntu/sagemath-dev

If you enable both PPAs sagemath and sagemath-dev, you will get the new versions faster, and still be able to go

apt-get install sagemath-upstream-binary=6.6. (for example) as the stable PPA will still be serving 6.6 for a while, especially if there is a broken version in sagemath-dev.

It'd be great to have a few people out there running both to help us test. There will not be any extra space usage, just an additional sources.list.d/aims-sagemath-dev.list

You can now go ahead and

sudo apt-mark unhold sagemath-upstream binary

Debian Details:

The package was fixed by reverting dpkg-source format from quilt to native to get rid of all the version control errors, and then from native to 1.0 to prevent removal of all the shared object files (which caused the cannot import from _struct errors). In the next few days the package (first on sagemath-dev) will upgrade to 6.7, 64bit and 32bit, and halve in size. They will start to exclude most things outside of local/, except EN and FR docs, and we're also removing the built-in git.

Regards,

Jan

Hi

There is a 6.7 in the dev PPA, testers welcome. We've already deployed this on campus, but is a homogeneous infrastructure.

sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:aims/sagemath-dev

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install sagemath-upstream-binary

sage -notebook

To revert, in case of problems:

sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/aims-sagemath-dev-trusty.list{,.disabled}

sudo apt-get install --reinstall sagemath-upstream-binary

Regards,

Jan

Hi,

Working perfectly in Linux Mint 17, co-existing with IPython, IJulia and friends without any issues. I updated from the version in the main ppa instead of installing, though. 

Thank you so much,

BR,

Pol
