csdp installed in 7.6?

[c. e. larson]

i'm trying to to a large computation. the latest version of Sage on my university's cluster is 7.3. one of the functions (lovasz_number) requires the optional csdp package. i'm not allowed to install additional packages myself. so i can request it - or request that 7.3 be upgraded to 7.6 - if csdb is included with 7.6. 

since lovasz_number computes on Cocalc csdb is installed there - but does that mean csbp is *included* in (the console version of) Sage 7.6? (or, even better, how can i figure out these answers on my own?)

We install tons (100+?) of extra optional packages into every standard Sage install on CoCalc.

Is there a list of these somewhere? I've had no luck googling this. (In particular which ones are still optional and which ones are now standard - I assume some optional packages become standard over time?)

Thanks,

current optional packages of Sage are listed at

http://www.sagemath.org/download-packages.html

And yes, csdp is current---although it is optional, so it needs to be installed

into 7.3 or 7.6 by issuing 'sage -i csdp' command.

Hope this explains.

Hi, some day in the future™ there will be a list on the cocalc website listing all packages and libraries. Right now, it's still a little bit wild west :-)

However, there are 4 levels you have to consider:

1. Sage is Python + extras, i.e. some libraries like "csv" or "subprocess" are from Python itself.

2. Sage library and included packages

3. Optional packages and experimental ones. ← that's where csdp fits in [1]

4. additional Python and R packages (usually via pip/cran, but maybe even directly from a repository)
