Revision history [back]

If you are downloading the pre-built Sage binaries, just move the old sage directory for 4.6.1 out of the way (mv sage sage.OLD) and unpack the new sage-4.7.1 in the parent where the old installtion was (in case you have scripts or aliases that refer to that installation.

This won't affect your sage notebook account or your saved notebooks since those are saved in your ~/.sage directory.
