https://blogs.gentoo.org/ago/2020/07/04/gentoo-tinderbox/ Issue: sci-mathematics/flintqs-1.0 fails to compile (MUSL-CLANG-SYSTEM). Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: tinderbox_musl) NOTE: (MUSL-CLANG-SYSTEM) in the summary means that bug was found on a machine that runs MUSL libc + clang16 but this bug MAY or MAY NOT BE related to musl/clang16.

Now that I've taken a closer look at the FlintQS code, I think a better plan is to eliminate it entirely. Flint (the library) now has qsieve_factor() built-in, and Frederik (its maintainer) says that FlintQS is probably redundant now, pending some benchmarks. I also found several silly /tmp vulnerabilities in FlintQS that I'd rather not deal with. So, I will work on having sage interface with qsieve_factor() directly. At the same time I will add algorithm='flint' as an additional option for sage's factor(), based on fmpz_factor().
I've removed FlintQS from sage and will soon remove it from Gentoo.
