--- Comment #19 from mat...@dnet.it --- Jack, If you want to share your .deb, the best way would be to set up your own ppa... but I cannot help you with this, since I never tried. Thank you for spotting my mistype... as I said, I could not test on a real machine when I was writing. So good to have a fix for later reference. I am repeating the updated instructions below, including the updated patch for ease of reference: Instructions to patch cantor to fix this bug, starting from the source of the official cantor package (run these commands in a terminal): #make a temporary directory mkdir /tmp/cantor cd /tmp/cantor #download the source of your currently installed cantor package sudo apt-get install debian-keyring sudo apt-get source cantor #the above will create a subdirectory called "cantor-version-number-something" #in there you will find the directory "src" (i cant test right now, so you might have to look for it) #find and edit the file "src/backends/sage/sagesession.cpp" according to the submitted patch #which you can find here: https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=cantor.git&a=commitdiff&h=6586a64bc5ae9d385be68b8500aa6b273aab0c79&hp=a94da3288f3cda78f9574aa2a7d753f4f70b5db0 #this patch is very simple: you only have to add "(?:Math)?" right after "Sage" on the right line #the "right line" is 197 for the latest cantor, but it might be some lines up or down in your version #now rebuild the package sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev sudo apt-get build-dep cantor cd "cantor-version-something" dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc cd .. #you should now have some debian packages #install the sage backend with sudo dpkg -i cantor-backend-sage*.deb Note that these instructions are only useful until the fix for this package will show up in the Ubuntu repositories (or if you are running an old version of cantor which will not be updated).
