So it appears to be quite useful. :-) > They do! They only use it in a small way > (for factoring integers) but they do use it. The question was rather if we have to specify the PARI library in the extension modules' library lists, as they only use PARI *indirectly* through the other libs specified (e.g. "curvesntl", "g0nntl", "jcntl", "rankntl"). At least on Linux this is not the case. (The dependency on PARI is already recorded in those libraries directly using it. "readelf -d local/lib/libcurvesntl.so" e.g. shows: ... 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libntl.so] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libgmp.so.3] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libpari- gmp-2.4.so.3] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libjcntl.so] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libstdc++.so. 6] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libm.so.6] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libgcc_s.so. 1] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libc.so.6] ...) (Though PARI is also unnecessarily linked to /some/ of the libraries provided by ECLIB, i.e. ECLIB's Makefile(s) could be "simplified" or improved as well to not link PARI to all of them, cf. #9914 [1].) -Leif [1] http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9914#comment:5 ff. -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
