Revision history [back]

The team at AIMS stopped producing the SageMath Ubuntu PPA because of the renewed packaging effort in Debian, which made SageMath available in Ubuntu 17.04. Unfortunately SageMath is not included in Ubuntu 17.10, but you can get it in Ubuntu 18.04.

To get SageMath under Ubuntu, you could either

• install the Debian package by running in a terminal:

  sudo apt install sagemath-jupyter
  

  (this should work under: Debian >= 9; Ubuntu 17.04; Ubuntu >= 18.04; unfortunately not in Ubuntu 17.10),

• install SageMath binary for your Ubuntu system from the SageMath download page.

• build from source,
• install using Conda,
• install using Docker.

Note that Ubuntu 18.04 was just released which makes it a good time to upgrade.
