Description Paolo Pedroni 2016-11-02 10:19:11 UTC 
Version 28.10 of sci-mathematics/gimps is available for download.

This is a bugfix release.

Changelog:
1. Crash is possible when multithreading TF. Fixed in 28.10.
2. Results are not saved when a SIGHUP signal is received. Fixed in 28.10.
3. If a termination signal is received while mprime is awaiting user input from the menus or dialogs, then mprime does not terminate. Fixed in 28.10.
4. There is an intermittent bug in calculating how long an LL test takes to complete. This can trigger unwanted unreserving of exponents. This bug IS NOT fixed. There is a new undoc.txt option, UnreserveExponents, which will protect 99.9% of users from this bug. This new option is implemented in 28.10.
5. SSE2 torture test generated random errors and crashes. Fixed in 28.10.

I forgot to say that just renaming the current ebuild works fine.
