> And I still think the change to Maxima spkg-install script should be
done in an independent (and quite trivial) ticket called something like
"let Maxima spkg properly install with different version of ECL", it would
be merged really quicly, and then rebase #13364 to update Maxima on top of
that new ticket.
Yep, that's what I was thinking of as well. (Unless the Maxima guys [and
probably we, too] are super-quick and fix all issues within the next few
days...)
> With this approach people could just drop in different versions of ECl
and ply with them.
Although I occasionally hear the contrary (e.g. "Why let LCalc build with
different versions of PARI?"), we shouldn't establish unnessary
dependencies, so yes.

into separated tickets is a good idea.
''Generally.'' Unfortunately often N developers touch the "same" code (or
spkgs) such that at least N-1 developers have to rebase their changes
M,,N,, times, or the fixes just rotten and never get merged.
