Sage not in repositories on ubuntu 17.10 and on download page I don't see version for Ubuntu newer than 16.04.
So, I should build Sage from source, right?
And if I will do it, could I add my compiled sage to the download page and Ubuntu repositories?
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.
Note that Ubuntu 18.04 was just released which makes it a good time to upgrade.
Building from source is a good way to get the latest version.
If you build from source, I would suggest building the latest development release, currently SageMath 8.2.rc4.
When SageMath 8.2 is released, it should be nearly identical to SageMath 8.2.rc4.
As I see your answer to this question, I'm curious to know; would it be the solution to my recent similar one: https://ask.sagemath.org/question/421... ? Thanks
@Romuald_314 -- checking again, it turns out SageMath is not available through the Ubuntu package manager in Ubuntu 17.10. Edited my answer here, and posted similar answer to your other question.
