Bug#974991: sagemath: segfault on startup

[Tobias Hansen]

Hi,

thanks for the report. I am waiting for upstream to complete their support for pari 2.13 [1].
I could already include their incomplete patch with ~150 failing doctests, or might as well wait for the patch to be completed.

Best,
Tobias
