I will build ntl 6.1.0 for Rawhide today. This involves an soname
bump, so I will also rebuild dependent packages, namely:
- eclib
- flint
- latte-integrale
- linbox
- Macaulay2
- polybori
- sagemath
- Singular
I have already been in contact with maintainers of these packages
about the rebuilds.

Graham,
I've been interested to revive the fedora-mips project myself, mostly
to get Fedora usable on my home firewall/router.
Very excited to see Imagination get involved!
Do you have any recommendations for cheap MIPS dev boards? [1]
I've been eyeing the Ubiquity board.

Hi Jon.
The Ubiquiti boards are some of the cheapest bang-per-buck right now,
but don't really have local storage (there is some NAND, and they do
have USB) - so network boot and NFS to start with (or the hassle of
USB dongle for development). They released some new ones a week or two

Is this necessary? Wouldn't it be better to have lbzip2 Provide bzip2
or something so that updating all those packages is not necessary,
and also that people who prefer normal bzip2 can still use it?
