I was researching how to get LaTeX to do calculations so that I can automate worksheets and everything pointed to using SageMath. So, I am trying to install Sage on a Mac running Sequoia 15.6 (M1).
- I installed Xcode and accepted the license.
- I created a source/build directory
- I cloned the Sage git repository
- Changed into the created subdirectory sage
- I don't plan on doing development, so I went to step 7 and entered the command: make configure
I got the following error message: FileNotMirroredError('tarball does not exist on mirror network') sage_bootstrap.tarball.FileNotMirroredError: tarball does not exist on mirror network Error: downloading configure tarball failed make: * [configure] Error 1
I saw that someone else had a similar problem, and a patch (patch-2.7.6) was suggested, but I'm unsure how to install the patch or where to install it. I downloaded the patch folder and unzipped it, but I'm unsure how to proceed.
I've spent 5 hours today trying to install this today (I've tried two other ways), and I'm ready to give up. I really appreciate any help you can provide.
Thank you in advance, Tessa
