| Pari-2.1.1 patches and RPM spec file |
Dear Pari maintainers and users,
I have downloaded and built Pari-2.1.1 on the following platform
(this surely sets no record, but gives yet another MACHINES entry):
Arch / proc: OS: Configure: sta: dyn: GP version:
==============================================================================
486DX (Cyrix) 66MHz Linux 2.2.18 gcc none dl2 59078 60600 2.1.1
Note: X11 support should work as well, but I do not use X11 on that
platform and have no X11 headers installed, so I could not test that.
The build process used GCC version 2.95.2.
I have accomplished fitting Pari to the following filesystem hierarchy:
=============================================================================
PARI FILES DESTINATION DIR (RPM syntax) EXAMPLE (my setup)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
gp executable %{_bindir} /usr/bin
Pari library %{_libdir} /usr/lib
Pari headers %{_includedir}/%{name} /usr/include/pari
man pages %{_mandir}/man* /usr/share/man/man1
Galois data %{_datadir}/%{name}/galdata /usr/share/pari/galdata
online docs %{_datadir}/%{name}/doc /usr/share/pari/doc
emacs files %{_datadir}/%{name}/emacs /usr/share/pari/emacs
examples %{_datadir}/%{name}/examples /usr/share/pari/examples
gpalias etc. %{_datadir}/%{name}/misc /usr/share/pari/misc
README etc. %{_docdir}/%{name} /usr/share/doc/packages/pari
=============================================================================
In particular, I did not want auxiliary files or files referenced by
programs at run-time to reside in the %{_docdir} tree which is not meant
for "automatic" usage. Instead, placing symlinks to the doc, emacs,
examples and misc directories in %{_docdir}/%{name} completed the
documentation without dislocating machine-evaluated data.
I have composed a corresponding spec file for use with the RedHat Package
Manager (RPM). As demonstrated above, the spec file has been designed to
automatically adapt the package to the target's filesystem structure, as
reflected in RPM's macro setup. It also makes RPM create the mentioned
symlinks in %{_docdir}/%{name} and sets up an initial /etc/gprc (with
paths to gpalias, gphelp etc. adjusted).
I needed to do some patching in order to achieve the desired level of
flexibility, and to properly reflect the resulting pathnames in the
documentation. By the way, I have fixed some typesetting bugs and tuned
the modes of the installed files. See the %changelog in the attached
spec file for an overview, or look at the attached patch file directly.
Though there are already some RPM packages for Pari around, I recommend
building them on your own, using the attached spec file, plus the
pristine sources (pari-*.tgz and galdata.tgz) and applicable patches,
if any (like those attached here). Thus, you can smoothly integrate
the binaries, documentation, and auxiliary files into the filesystem
structure that your RPM has been configured for. Here is a quick guide:
1. Move the source *.tgz files and the patch file(s) to RPM's
SOURCES directory (which typically has /tmp-like permissions,
so you need not be root in order to do that).
2. Move the spec file to RPM's SPECS directory. When changing version
or release number, create a copy with a corresponding name, and
update its entries accordingly. Do not forget to disable old patches.
3. Set the CFLAGS environment variable to your preferred compiler flags.
For X11 support, add the environment variable settings `graphic=X11'
and `Xincroot=/usr/X11R6/include' (or whatever).
Note: CFLAGS and Xincroot are respected by Pari's Configure script.
The `graphic' variable is inspected by the specfile scriptlets in
order to pass the desired --graphic option to the Configure script.
4. Run "rpm -bb <specfile>" (replace <specfile> by the spec file name)
and relax while RPM builds the binary package.
5. Get root permissions, change to the RPMS/<arch> directory where RPM
has produced the binary package, and install the package using
something like "rpm -Uvh <packagefile>".
To my regret, I did not dare rewriting the Configure script to make it
accept more pathname options. (Actually, providing some options to
individually preset the existing pathname variables would be sufficient.)
Instead, I made the spec file scriptlets patch the Configure script
dynamically, setting the path defaults to the values of the respective RPM
macros. Clearly, this approach may fail with future versions of the
Configure script, so that's backward. After all, it has given a quick
solution, and needs to change only when `Configure' gets even better than
it is now. (The straightforward creation of the dynamic Pari lib was quite
impressive.)
Have fun,
Christian Cornelssen <ccorn@cs.tu-berlin.de>

%description
PARI / GP is a package which is aimed at efficient computations in number
theory, but also contains a large number of other useful functions. It is
somewhat related to a Computer Algebra System, but is not really one since
it treats symbolic expressions as mathematical entities such as matrices,
polynomials, series, etc..., and not as expressions per se. However it is
often much faster than other CAS, and contains a large number of specific
functions not found elsewhere, essentially for use in number theory.
This package can be used in an interactive shell (GP) or as a C/C++ library
(PARI). It is free software, in the sense of freedom AND 'free of charge'.
