Also, the use of -i with sed is not portable, and breaks installation on Solaris: the file local/bin/lie still refers to the build directory. Something like this will fix it:

I see. This is now fixed too. :)

Sorry, I keep finding more issues. The file sage/interfaces/lie.py expects LiE to be installed in local/lib/lie, not local/lib/LiE. So the current setup leads to doctest failures.

Also, the file local/bin/lie should be executable. I guess this was a side effect of changing how sed was used.

Fixed, and added a patch to the library. I chose to use the path local/lib/LiE because it seems to be less generic than local/lib/lie and less likely to cause conflicts. Such a contingency is probably not really worthy consideration, but it is only three letters long, after all...

There is still a doctest failure on some platforms:

If you want to fix it, you can (e.g., test whether 'Cartan' in lie.trait_names() returns True). It's not very important to me since it's an optional spkg, and the documentation needs a lot of work anyway: do any of the methods actually have docstrings beyond an EXAMPLES block?

Yeah, I think that can be done on a different ticket...
