I just installed it on my F23 virtual machine (755 MByte download, 579
packages!!).  I don't know anything about the program, but when I typed
"sage" I got the Sage version screen you got, and then the prompt "sage:"

Just for kicks, I typed in "1+2" and it popped back "3."

Not help, maybe, but a datapoint.  A dnf installation seems to work
here.
