I'm working on setting up a Windows VM so I can at least try to do it.

agettikh commented 2 years ago

Dear embray, do you have successfully created the distributive of Windows installer? Thank you for your time !

agettikh commented 2 years ago

Dear teams, could you please tell, is there any update here ? Thank you and best regards, Andrey

embray commented 2 years ago

@agettikh Might be able to work on it this week. 🤞

Hello embray, could you please tell how does the thing with the creation of the SageMath 9.5 for windows users. Maybe you could create an ISO image of the virtual machine with all the packages and provide the instructions so I can do it myself? Unfortunately I do not have so much experience with Linux. Best regards, Andrey

I am eagerly waiting 9.5 since I can't use Interact on Jupyter Lab, and I really like the Lab as opposed to straight Jupyter. I did a side-by-side with the same code and Interact works fine on Jupyter but not on Jupyter Lab. I hear that has been fixed in 9.5.

Hi !

SageMath 9.2 is working fine, but with SageMath 9.3 I have the same issue that`s described here: https://github.com/sagemath/sage-windows/issues/61 and https://ask.sagemath.org/question/61753/sage-crashing-on-notebook-startup/ on Windows 10

Building Sage from source is a bit difficult for me. But I can`t find installer binaries of the newest SageMath 9.5 for Windows.

Sagemath is probably as big on Windows now as it is on Linux. It baffles me why the Sagemath team hasn't nailed down a Windows binary release concurrent with the Linux release.

For this reason, I do not migrate to Linux and prefer to stay on Windows. There is no coherence, no punctuality, no support when it comes to open source software. And this is a prime example of how Maxima is better than SageMath, even if the latter actually includes the former.

@williamstein , I assume that you have all the necessary software installed on your computer to compile binaries for Windows. You deliberately do not want to release Sage for Windows?

cybervigilante commented 2 years ago

Does Maxima have something like @interact in sagemath? That's where sage for windows died on me, so maybe I'll look at Maxima.
