Hi Gareth,
I would just like to point out that mprime has been available as
part of Debian based Linux distributions for quite a while.
apt-get install prime-net
Version 19.1 is in Debian 2.2 (potato) and version 20.6 is available
for woody. It is probably worth mentioning that it is part of Debian
on www.mersenne.org (as prime-net). The Debian woody package can be
found here:
http://ftp.debian.org/dists/woody/non-free/binary-i386/misc/prime-net_20.6.2-2.deb
Thanks go to Francois Gouget <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for putting this in
Debian. Go Debian! :-)
