Hi all,
I posted an update on the Fedora 20 Scientific Spin on a blog post yesterday. [1]
The key update is that:
I have created a Wiki page [3] where I want to list scripts/other ways to sanity test the various packages/applications that are being shipped.
So, can I please request you all in downloading the 32-bit or 64-bit TC5 spin from here[2] and see if *your* tool/library of interest is working as expected? And also please add the "test" to the Wiki page?
The Wiki page URL once again: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Scientific_Packages_Testing
Please let me know if you need any help with that.

Thank you.

Can you add sagemath to the kickstart file? The iso is already large enough, and contains most requires anyway. There are some known problems in the sagemath package (most notably currently is the jmol plugin not working after the last java security updates; static image generation with jmol works), but no packaging problems should exist, sans a few windows of time in rawhide, since it was added to fedora.

Sure,I am testing a build now. I will add it once it's done. Added 'sagemath' and 'sagemath-notebook' to the package list.

I added it, but ran into issues with the dependency check. Filed a bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1006230
So, I have excluded it from the kickstart for now. If this gets fixed soon, I will add it back.
Thanks, Amit.

Thanks for fixing it (and rdeiter).
Sage is now in the RC3 release.
