A few months ago, I reorganized the packages to produce a package named polybori and various subpackages (including a python-polybori subpackage). This is available in Fedora 17 (to be released in about a month) and Fedora Rawhide. I will probably not backport that reorganization to Fedora 16, as it would involve making some changes that violate the Package Update Policy; see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Updates_Policy. Bottom line: Fedora 16 has polybori 0.7.2 and cudd 2.4.2, and will probably stay that way. Fedora 17 and above currently have polybori 0.8.1 and cudd 2.5.0. Any changes we need to make should be done there. > It is also required a patch similar to this one to be able to build > sagemath with it: > > http://svn.mandriva.com/viewvc/packages/cooker/polybori/current/SPECS/polybori.spec?r1=720397&r2=720396&pathrev=720397 > > [...] Okay, I can add that easily. I'm going to wait until I understand why you wanted the other change above, though. Also, I haven't yet built polybori with NTL support.

Once you are sponsored, this problem should go away. If I'm wrong about that, hopefully someone else reading this will correct me. > The patch to use unpatched ntl should have a nasty side effect in the notebook > because it will miss the error message, if in the terminal, it will > print the error message > to stderr anyway before calling abort.

What patch would NTL need to solve this problem? -- Jerry James http://www.jamezone.org/ _______________________________________________ scitech mailing list scitech@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/scitech
