Revision history [back]

I just upgraded my Sage from 10.4 to 10.7 using the 3-manifolds package, but I have kept the old version for comparisons during the first days of the upgrade.

In the jupyter notebook running the 10.4 kernel the following code for value of an annuity runs without a hitch:

find_root(7000 == 5000*(1+0.045/12)^x, 0, 10000)

However in another notebook running the 10.7 kernel, the same code fails with no output and a message that the kernel has died and is restarting. The hardware/software platform is an old MacPro (ca. 2008) running MacOS 10.13 (High Sierra). My guess is that the more recent kernel is issuing instructions to my CPU that it cannot perform or else that the behavior of the function itself has changed. I've had no trouble finding roots of ordinary polynomial functions on suitable intervals using either kernel.

My guess is confirmed when I run the same code in the REPL and get back:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
(no backtrace available)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unhandled SIGILL: An illegal instruction occurred.
This probably occurred because a *compiled* module has a bug
in it and is not properly wrapped with sig_on(), sig_off().
Python will now terminate.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
/usr/local/bin/sage: line 39: 88268 Illegal instruction: 4  /usr/bin/env PYTHONUSERBASE="$USERBASE" SSL_CERT_FILE="$SSL_CERT_FILE" "$SYMLINK"/venv/bin/sage "$@"

Likely, I will be directed to post the issue to the appropriate github link, but I don't know what that is. Many thanks, as usual to the folks of the 3-manifolds project!
