pari-2.7.5(STABLE) released


Dear PARI lovers,

I would like to announce the release of pari-2.7.5 (STABLE). The sources
and Windows binaries are available from

  http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/download.html

This is a BUGFIX release for the stable branch. 
This release addresses all significant problems that could be fixed in a
simple, harmless way. However we strongly encourage you to upgrade since it
fixes a number of cases where PARI was returning an incorrect result. 

This release also fixes some warnings generated by clang 3.7, and compatibility
issues with perl 5.20 when doing "make clean".

  --- For Windows users: ---

A 64-bit installer package is available at:
<http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/pub/pari/windows/Pari64-2-7-5.exe>

A 32-bit installer package is available at:
<http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/pub/pari/windows/Pari32-2-7-5.exe>

  --- For Android users: ---

  An updated PariDroid package will be available soon.

  --------------------------

Thanks to all those who reported problems, on the mailing lists or through
our Bug Tracking System. ( See http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/Bugs/ ), or
who tested the preleases.

Have fun,

  Bill and Karim
