Hi,

I would like to work on two tickets: #5731 (Update NTL to 5.5.2
release) and #2114 (get gf2x  into Sage!).

As already reported in the discussion for #2114, the easiest way to
add gf2x is just to install it first, and then add an option to the ./
configure script of NTL. If have some spkgs available and everything
builds fine on my laptop.

My problem is that many things are build upon NTL. If gf2x is an
optional package, I don't know how to rebuild everything that needs to
be after it's installation (this would in particular include the NTL
spkg but modifying the options passed to ./configure). Any hints
there?

        Yann

PS: One option possible in the future would be to make gf2x a standard
spkg, build it without tuning (it takes a long time and only a few
users would really want it), and make the tuning possible later.
