New description:
Please update ecl and maxima to the newest upstream release. Sage packages
are here:
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/patches/ecl-10.4.1.spkg
http://www.stp.dias.ie/~vbraun/Sage/spkg/maxima-5.22.1.spkg
Note that you cannot upgrade one without the other; Both need to be
upgraded simultaneously or build will fail.
Relevant tickets for ecl:
* #9493: Remove extra baggage from ECL 10.2.1.p1 (again). The package
has been cleaned up, but I feel removing gmp sources is too dangerous.
* #10185: the old ecl-10.2.1 does not build on Fedora 14: Hopefully
fixed with the updated ecl from this ticket.
Relevant tickets for maxima:
* #8645: ECL library "maxima.fasb" is built at new location. The patches
from this bug have been incorporated into the maxima spkg, and #8645 can
be closed after this ticket.
* #8731: update/upgrade maxima to latest upstream (5.21.1): Latest
upstream is nowadays 5.22.1.
* #8582: `sum(1/(1+k^2), k, -oo, oo)` returns 0: The new maxima seems to
be able to evaluate this correctly, at leasts it returns some expression
with digamma functions.
The updated maxima code seems to be more careful about signs which leads
to doctest errors. Moreover, error reporting was changed. Therefore you
need to apply the following patches to the Sage library (in this order):
* `trac_10187_fix_easy_doctests.patch`
* `trac_10187_general_display_prefix_workaround.patch`
* `trac_10187_mark_some_doctests_random_until_9880_gets_merged.patch`
Finally, you need to patch `$SAGE_LOCAL/local/bin/sage-maxima.lisp` with
* `trac_10187_sage-maxima_lisp.patch`
