Comment(by drkirkby):
I'm just building sage-4.4.4.alpha1 on Solaris 10 SPARC and will test this
as soon as that is finished. What other machines has it been tested on?
I can't spend any more time on this just now - my wife wants me to do
something which is going to take a few hours.
I think it is sensible to upgrade the maxima in this way, but there are
various small changes to ECL which could (should) be merged into the ecl
update.
Would you consider making merging these patches
* On #8951, the patch which removes the tmp files and has a minor (really
cosmetic) changes to spkg-install. The removal of the tmp files is quite
important, as it often stops builds on 't2'
* On #8089 the patch to disable assembly code on OpenSolaris
* On #9187 the patch to allow parallel building of .spkgs.
I think if a new .spkg with ECL 10.4.1 is created, and the Maxima changed
to work properly with that, then these should be merged. Then hopefully
the maxima update can be separated.
One of the issues I will have reviewing this is the fact I don't know
lisp, but I doubt many people will so I will do my best.
But just now I need to do other things.
