Does anyone else have the same problem?

If I run sage-shell:run-sage to get a SageMath shell in Emacs, and run help(), I get the standard help message, which starts with “Welcome to Sage 10.1!”.

But if I try help(diff) or any other specific function, Emacs hangs. Doing C-g allows me to use Emacs again, but the SageMath session is no longer responsive: trying to enter any other command results in hanging. Even C-c C-d no longer works, I have to try C-c C-\ and wait for the SageMath kernel to crash, or do M-x kill-process.

This all seemed to work before I upgraded Emacs and changed my package manager to straight.el.

I’m on Emacs 29.1, using sage-shell-mode v0.3.

I’ve covnfigured it as follows:

(use-package sage-shell-mode
  :straight t
  :defer t

  :custom
  (sage-shell:sage-executable (executable-find "sage"))
  (sage-shell:set-ipython-version-on-startup nil)
  (sage-shell:check-ipython-version-on-startup nil)
  (sage-shell:use-prompt-toolkit nil)
  (sage-shell:use-simple-prompt nil)

  )

(However, I find that the custom settings aren’t being respected either …)

I also use ob-sagemath, which allows me to use SageMath in org-src-blocks, which works fine as far as I can tell.
