Description Tobias Hahn 2005-04-19 05:43:07 UTC
The package sci-mathematics/pari-2.1.6 provides only the latest stable version of pari. The development version of pari itself, however, contains many improvements in terms of algorithms, speed etc. and is itself fairly stable. The differences between pari stable and pari development are similar to stable linux kernels, i.e. 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, and development kernels, i.e. 2.3, 2.5.

It would be a great enhancement for the gentoo-math community to add an ebuild for this development version or the latest cvs.

To my knowledge, such a package is also suggested in bug 64333.

Reproducible: Always
