Bug#779804: Updated maxima-ecl debdiff for maxima 5.38.1-2

Greetings, and thanks for your work on Debian! I understand the desire for an interim solution to get something in before freeze. But please drop this package and just copy the 5.35 source in the sage tree and build it there however you like. This is the only logical place really as sage (under

Bug#779804: Updated maxima-ecl debdiff for maxima 5.38.1-2

Hi Camm, with all the issues that prevent us from using the maxima package for SageMath (version mismatch, ecl vs. gcl, missing fasl file, missing patches) an the freeze for stretch getting closer, we needed a solution. So I created a separate maxima package to be used by SageMath. It is called
