Sorry for bumping, just to prevent this package from burying in ML. Originally Fabian sent a patch for separate "xaos.scm" file. Then Andreas suggested to move it to "maths.scm". But this will lead to the mentioned circularity: (gnu packages image) already uses (gnu packages maths) and after this patch: (gnu packages maths) will use (gnu packages image). Is it OK to leave it like this, or should 'xaos' be left in a separate file? -- Alex
