Changes (by leif):

  * status:  needs_review => needs_work


Comment:

 I'd suggest adding the (standard) section ''Special Update/Build
 Instructions'' to {{{SPKG.txt}}}, with the following:
   * Remove upstream Mercurial repository (directory {{{src/.hg}}}, file
 {{{src/.hgtags}}})
   * Remove directory {{{src/autom4te.cache}}}, file {{{src/m4ri.vcproj}}}

 I've built a p1 spkg with the above mentioned files removed: 392KB vs.
 1.2MB

 If there are no dependencies on Sage packages (which is the case here), we
 don't need to add {{{$SAGE_LOCAL/include}}} to the preprocessor search
 path in {{{spkg-install}}} ({{{CFLAGS}}} and {{{CPPFLAGS}}}).

 Perhaps touch {{{src/configure}}}, because it has the same time stamp as
 {{{configure.*}}}.

 Upstream notes:
   * There is no target {{{clean}}}.
   * {{{src/NEWS}}} and {{{src/ChangeLog}}} are '''empty''' files. ;-)

 Tests in progress,

 Leif
