New GMP and MPFR packages for review

New GMP and MPFR packages for review

[Billinghurst, David (CALCRTS)]

The current cygwin version of gmp is 4.1.4. This also contains an old version 
of mpfr. The latest version of gmp is 4.2.1  It no longer contains it own version
of mpfr. I have packaged gmp-4.2.1 and mpfr-2.2.0. The current gmp maintainer 
Lapo Luchini is happy for me to offer these for review and take over as 
maintainer if they are acceptable. 

There is some discussion from a few months back here
  http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2006-05/msg00098.html
  http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2006-05/msg00104.html
  http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2006-05/msg00111.html

As gfortran - the fortran compiler in gcc-4 - uses libgmp3 and libmpfr, it
seems sensible to break the monolithic packages into sub-packages.

The new cyggmp3.dll is suposed to be binary compatible with the current release,
and testing seems to confirm this.

The new cygmpfr1.dll is not binary compatible with the current cygmpfr0.dll.
I provide a libmpfr0 package that just contains the existing cygmpfr0.dll,
and supplies the existing gmp3-4.1.4 src tarball as the src package.

I'm not using this so I can't test.  The packaging looks good.  But I don't think
the gmp package should have libgmp-devel in its requirements.  This contradicts the
purpose of differing between runtime and devel packages.  The devel package should
only be pulled if the user explicitely requests it, isn't it?

Similar here.  mpfr requires libmpfr-devel only.  I think the base package
should require libmpfr1 and libmpfr0, the latter to allow easy upgrading.  The
devel package should only require libmpfr1.  Uh and, maybe, libgmp-devel?

Not here, please.

Uploaded.  I removed gmp 4.1.2-1 which leaves 4.1.4-2 as prev.

However, I'm still wondering if the libmpfr-devel package shouldn't
have a dependency to libgmp-devel.  After all, gmp.h is included from
one of the mpfr header files...

Oh, PLEASE!


Thanks for taking over maintainership!

I have fixed the dependencies in the setup.hint files.  As these are generated
by cygport I also updated the src package (and rebuilt gmp and mpfr as a check).
