There is bug with init.sage (and how to resolve it)

[Андрей Ширшов]

Hello!
Sage 5.12 doesn't see init.sage file in $DOT_SAGE
I found this bug in such way:

>>import os
>>os.environ['SAGE_STARTUP_FILE']
/home/andrei/.sage//init.sage
The problem is in file $SAGE_ROOT/spkg/bin/sage-env

There is line SAGE_STATUP_FILE = "$DOT_SAGE/init.sage" in this file
I replaced this line to:
SAGE_STATUP_FILE = "home/andrei/.sage/init.sage"
After that sage see my init.sage file
Thanks.

I don't see this behavior: Sage 5.12 sees my init.sage file perfectly, at least from the command line.

Reading init.sage from the notebook seems to be broken. See http://ask.sagemath.org/question/3084/notebook-and-initsage and http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/15308.

Attaching files doesn't work either on the notebook. Basically, nothing of the server interaction in the notebook is doctested so it tends to not work.
