Hi all, I have just finished packaging GiNaC 0.7.0. It is sitting at the usual places, see <http://www.ginac.de/Download.html>. Beware that you really do need CLN 1.1 (silently released yesterday) in order to use it! This is so, because CLN 1.1 is interface-incompatible (namespace cln) with earlier versions of CLN and GiNaC 0.7.0 is expecting the new interface. For those of you (Eduardo, Bernard) who want to extract a cln::cl_N from GiNaC::numeric for various reasons, there is now a method GiNaC::numeric::to_cl_N() which does right that. (I was first having a casting operator in mind, but that turned out to lead into ambiguities quite easily so we'll use .to_cl_N() from now on.) Cint users should upgrade to at least 5.14.62 in order to use GiNaC-cint with the current release. So, this is the list of required package versions and the order of steps how to proceed: * Install GMP >= 3.0 (current is 3.1.1) (optional) * Install CLN >= 1.1 (current is 1.1) * Install Cint >= 5.14.62 (current is 5.14.65) (optional) * Install GiNaC 0.7.0 * rejoice, cheer, sing... ;-) We plan to provide .deb and .rpm packages next week. And please read the file NEWS to see what else has changed. Happy hacking -rbk. -- Richard Kreckel <Richard.Kreckel@Uni-Mainz.DE> <http://wwwthep.physik.uni-mainz.de/~kreckel/>
