symbolic not working with sympy 1.7

[jose-matos]

I have fixed the most pressing issues identified with the connection to sympy 1.6 and now with the update to sympy 1.7 there are new issues raising:

>> a = syms('x')
Symbolic pkg v2.9.0: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 28, in <module>
AttributeError: '_PrintFunction' object has no attribute '__globals__'
Closing the Python communications link.

error: Python exception: AttributeError: '_PrintFunction' object has no attribute '__globals__'
    occurred in python_header import block.
    Try "sympref reset" and repeat your command?
    (consider filing an issue at https://github.com/cbm755/octsympy/issues)
error: called from
    pycall_sympy__ at line 191 column 5
    valid_sym_assumptions at line 38 column 10
    assumptions at line 82 column 7
    syms at line 97 column 13

I would like to help fixing this. I will have some time after the second half of December. Are there any developer guide that can help me in this quest? :-)

I think this is fixed, although there are still plenty of failing tests on 1.7.1

Hi,
Although this bug is closed, the issue is not fixed.

I am using Fedora 35, Octave 6.4, Symbolic 2.9.0, and SymPy 1.9.1, and the same issue as per initial report.

I installed Octave as per the distro repositories, so did not want to reconfigure the system (if this is possible)

Regards,
Shadmeister.

No new release has been made. Issues are closed once they are fixed in the development source code.

We hope to have a long-overdue release early this summer.
