There's at least 28M giac-1.2.2.37/src/javagiac_linux32.tgz 394K giac-1.2.2.37/src/javagiac_linux64.tgz 28M total which we certainly don't have to ship, besides perhaps some prepared documentation (dvi, ps, pdf etc.), and documentation on PARI/GP. I'd also bzip2 the tarball. With just the two files above removed (but still a lot more than in the previous version): 11M giac-1.2.2.37.tar.bz2 -leif > > > Otherwise additional ~12 MB to the Sage tarball would IMHO be ok; it > exploded during the last few years anyway... > > > -leif -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
