Comment(by nthiery):
Hi!
Thanks Marco for your work!
With Jean-Michel, we have merged Marco's changes into our original spkg
(with the changes to the sources upstreamed in Jean's distribution). We
will upload the result shortly here.
About the spkg name. Since the gap3 spkg is completely different from the
gap4 one, and is supposed to cohabit with it, I would argue for calling
the spkg gap3-???? to make a clear distinction. It is further based on
Jean's gap3 distribution. So, would you recommend:
calling it {{{gap3-jm2.spkg}}} or {{{gap3-3.4.4-jm2.spkg}}} ?
Jean would prefer the first option, since anyway gap3's version has not
changed since 1997, and won't ever change again.
