 > Leif, will you post a new spkg with your changes added?

 Yes, later today.

 versions, e.g. our current 2.4.3.alpha.* spkgs, as well, so we can in
 principle remove the dependency on #11130 (and merge it earlier).

 before #11130, so making it compatible with earlier versions just looks
 like more complication to me.

 Well, it's not too complicated it wasn't worth to remove the dependency,
 be it for testing / reviewing, or further work on the package. (The new
 spkg will have other advantages btw.)

 But ''that's'' IMHO something we should report upstream, as it won't be
 the last time Lcalc will have some PARI version-dependent parts... ;-)
