This is just a request for the current version of the gnu multiprecision library to be made into an ebuild. Additionally their are patches to this version here: http://www.swox.com/gmp/#STATUS that may be worthwhile to add to the ebuild if possible.. Thanks again for making a very nice linux distribution.. -Robert
Created attachment 6840 [details] gmp-4.1.1.ebuild tar file made the ebuild including patchs only test on gentoo-1.4 x86 It runs the 'make check' test-case -- this can be removed after testing. Lars
I can't seem to download this ebuild using either konqueror or galeon from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12473 I get "attachment.cgi" instead of "gmp-4.1.1.ebuild" or similar. Also this doesn't appear in the gmp directory of portage after doing an emerge sync. Am I doing something incorrectly or is something wrong? -Robert
GMP was recently updated to 4.1.2. (2002-12-30) Another package that may be interesting to someone familiar with gmp is here: www.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/TI/LiDIA/ It is an advanced number theory package. Sometimes that web site doesn't seem to work. It requires gmp or another similar package as its foundation.
I've updated the ebuild to version 4.1.2, currently ~ masked for all architectures since we're frozen for Gentoo 1.4. Aron
