SAGE crashes when reloading attached files after saving edits with vim.

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I have been editing attached files with vim and it usually reloads the files with no issues. Occasionally the file will not reload and needs to be manually reattached, I have not been able to figure out how to reproduce this bug. I have now found a new and more serious issue: this time when the file detached, it disappeared from SAGE's knowledge of the file system and SAGE crashed completely. I do not know what I did differently to cause this crash, I am attaching the crash report.

Seems to be related to this sage-devel discussion from September 2015 where few solutions were provided including

:set backupcopy=yes 

which I am using in my vimrc file ever since.
