NO CDROM: The french documentation is for non commercial only use Computer algebra system by Bernard Parisse Maintained by:han@math.jussieu.fr Port Added: 21 Sep 2010 15:30:24 License: not specified in port
General purpose Computer algebra system by Bernard Parisse released
under GPLv3. The french documentation by Renee De Graeve is for non
commercial use only.
it consists of:
- a C++ library (libgiac). It is build on C and C++ libraries:
PARI, NTL (arithmetic), CoCoA (Groebner basis), GSL (numerics),
GMP (big integers), MPFR (bigfloats) and provides algorithms for
basic polynomial operations (product, GCD) and symbolic
computations (simplifications, limits/series, symbolic
integration, sommation, ...). The library can be configured to
accept Maple or TI syntax to ease the transition for users of
these systems.
- a command line interpreter (icas or giac). It can be called from texmacs.
- a FLTK-based GUI (xcas). It is a GUI for symbolic computation
with several modules added: 2-d and 3-d graphics, dynamic 2-d and
3-d geometry (exact or numeric), spreadsheet, programming
environment.
Bernard Parisse is the main author of the CAS of HP40G and HP49G calculators.
This port is statically linked against snapshots of FLTK-1.3.x
(http://www.fltk.org) and of CoCoALib (http://cocoa.dima.unige.it/cocoalib)

- Update to 0.9.5
-swich back to previous auxiliary file fltkdev.tgz instead of fltk-giac.tar.gz
due to a printing bug in 64bits.
- xgiac was removed in the author sources, so remove texmacs run dependency
- add lapack dependency

- Update from the author sources to giac 0.9.3 [1]
- The fltk auxiliary file is updated from giac's author. The name of the new
version has changed to fltk-giac.tar.gz [1]
- (re)Enable pari support, This version of giac is now
compatible with pari > 2.3 [1]
- Remove (after run tests) the amd64 extra flags in the Makefile [1]
- Patch phase don't require bash [2]
- Programs link to libintl so add USE_GETTEXT=yes [2]
- Add run dependency on editors/texmacs, xgiac script calls it [2]
- Fix path to binaries in dektop entry files [2]
- Mark MAKE_JOBS_SAFE [2]

- Add LDFLAGS to CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV (as it was done with LDFLAGS)
- Fix all ports that add {CPP,LD}FLAGS to *_ENV to modify flags instead
