Unsuccessful install on Ubuntu 18.04

[Jack Fearnley]

I just installed Sagemath 8.1 from the ubuntu repository on a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04. This was a large which loaded many packages including Python2.7.

When I came to run sage I got the following:

**************************************************************

jack@jack-XPS-8910:~$ sage

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/share/sagemath/bin/sage-ipython", line 7, in <module>

    from sage.repl.interpreter import SageTerminalApp

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sage'

jack@jack-XPS-8910:~$ 

*************************************************************

Where do I go from here?

I might mention that I have already loaded Anaconda with the Python3.6 option.  Could this be interfering in some way?

Best Regards,

Sorry to reply to my own post, but I discovered the error.  It was indeed a PATH problem. When Anaconda is generated it installs itself as the first element of PATH.  I have now corrected this to make Anaconda the last element of PATH and sage loads without a problem.

I can still access unique elements of Anaconda since it is still in my path.
