Ubuntu 8.04 Sage tarball doesn't work in Ubuntu 9.04?

[Chris Seberino]

Which Sage tarball/package should I use for Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty
beta) ??

The Ubuntu 8.10 tarball doesn't work there. I get

"9587 Illegal instruction"

Hi Chris,

Did you remove the sage-flags.txt after you got a warning? Then this
is a problem with your CPU not having SSE3 instructions, so for now
building from sources would be the easiest. It might take a while :)

Aside from that I do not know if the 8.10 binary works on 9.04 - I
have never tried. Given that 9.04 is not released yet we do not build
binaries for it.

I would recommend building from source. Takes up to several hours,
but rarely requires any user interaction (just type make and wait).
