Dear Fink developers,
I have added a Distribution field to fink packages which involve

I've updated maxima to the latest upstream release (5.12.0) for 10.4.
I'm keeping the prior maxima-5.11.0-4 around for a while to make sure
that any packages that use maxima continue to function properly with
the new version.
