Comment(by leif):
I've compiled a {{{pari-2.3.5.p4-preview.spkg}}} (changes not yet checked
in, still testing on some systems with various combinations of parameters
and installed packages):
{{{
=== pari-2.3.5.p4 (Leif Leonhardy, August 23th 2010) ===
* #9722: "--graphic=none" is now respected by PARI. We still look
for graphics libraries, but don't use them in that case (see below,
too).
* #9722: Improved patch to config/get_fltk (makes sure the header
files are present, too, if the FLTK library was found - fixes
compiler error on IMHO misconfigured installations).
We still look for FLTK components even if "--graphic=none" was
specified, and print appropriate messages, but then simply do not
use them.
* #9722: New patch to config/get_X11:
- Added/corrected/clarified messages regarding what was (not) found,
and if this is really relevant.
- An X11 library in */lib64/* will be found now, too (if we do a
64-bit build); on Fedora, libX11.so is located in /usr/lib64.
- Added comments.
* spkg-install:
- Clear (unset) lots of variables that might (unintentionally) be
used by PARI; perhaps upstream should initialize them.
- Clear GP_INSTALL_PREFIX, which is interpreted by PARI.
- Added help & informational message regarding PARI_EXTRA_OPTS; in
addition, allow the user to override Sage's "--graphic=none"
since this now works (see above; we don't want to annoy users
that perhaps previously made use of GP's plotting support).
* Clean-up in spkg-install:
- Quote more environment variables (including SAGE_LOCAL).
- Consistently use $UNAME instead of `uname` (set in sage-env).
- Added some comments.
* NOTE: At least some of these changes should be incorporated into
our PARI 2.4.3 (svn 12577, see #9343), and/or reported upstream.
I haven't changed config/get_Qt. It seems Qt support is broken on
newer systems (because Qt <=3 is expected), but this doesn't break
the build, only Qt will not be used.
}}}
Contact me if you are interested in testing this, too. (Appreciated.)
