Description Nils Stöckmann 2009-05-10 15:03:06 UTC

Hi!

I'd like to ask wether sympy could be integrated into portage. I know there are other CAS within portage, however in contrast to other CAS sympy is very easy to work with, has a really intiutive syntax and yet an impressive scope of operation. I really miss it in gentoo.
sympy's project page is given as the url.

It's in portage with unstable keywords. See Section 3b of http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=3 for more information on how to use unstable packages in a stable system. You may find app-portage/autounmask useful.
