Bug 134313 – [science overlay] sci-mathematics/kayali-0.3.2 (New package)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description Colin Kiegel 2006-05-25 04:48:00 UTC]

from kayali.sourceforge.net:

Kayali is a Qt based Computer Algebra System (CAS) that can also be used as an advanced replacement for KDE KCalc. It is essentially a front end GUI for Maxima (and is easily extended to other CAS back-ends) and Gnuplot.

Kayali is currently alpha software.

Modified dependencies

[Comment 4 Lucas Chiesa 2006-05-31 10:09:35 UTC]

Hi!

I've changed the dependencies and added the "plotting" use flag. However, while the ebuild works ok, I can't use kayali:

tulku@Ofelia ~ $ kayali

    self.frmInputEdit.setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy(7,5,0,0,self.frmInputEdit.sizePo
licy().hasHeightForWidth()))
TypeError: argument 1 of QSizePolicy() has an invalid type

Is this a code error? Or a problem with the installed Qt version?

Thanks,

Lucas Chiesa

This patch is actually a hack.

It just outcomments one line:

-self.frmInputEdit.setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy(7,5,0,0,self.frmInputEdit.sizePolicy().hasHeightForWidth()))
+#self.frmInputEdit.setSizePolicy(...)

Adding a fixed ebuild. The patch works ok here. I have also added this ebuild in the Gentoo Science Overlay. Please go to http://gentooscience.org/ for more information.

It has been for a while in the new science overlay: layman -a science.
Anyone know if kayali has future?

No new stuff since 2007, wxmaxima works nice and is active
and as far as I am concerned the kayali ebuild produce a non
working application on my system.
I have a window and can put stuff in it but no results if I remember
correctly.

package has been dropped from ::science, upstream has not updated in 13 years.
