New description:
Here's an updated package for Polymake. The new package is a lot simpler
than the old one, because this upstream version comes with a sane
configure script and installs everything in standard locations.
This depends on the `boost-cropped` spkg >= 1.52.0
This is a very long compilation. That's partly due to the fact that the
`spkg-install` disables parallel build, because apparently that used to be
buggy. I've been cautious and left that disabled, but I wouldn't be
surprised if we could enable it again -- if the configure script has had
an overhaul, then maybe so has the makefile.
I'm working on a new Python interface that takes advantage of the new C++
api (via Cython) instead of writing data to a file and using `pexpect`
(yuck). That'll take a while and be a different ticket.
Here's the link to the new package:

Comment (by tkluck):
I updated this to polymake-2.12 (which is bit-for-bit identical to
polymake-2.12-rc3). I fixed a version number typo in SPKG.txt and updated
it to reflect the rename boost-cropped -> boost_cropped.
I also removed the disabling of parallel build. The polymake documentation
now recommends using parallel build, so there shouldn't be any need for
that anymore:

The current package has md5sum 51d3b6da0ae60ac417e418bc89da1189.
