It emphasizes symbolic mathematical computation: algebra, trigonometry, calculus, and much more. For example, Maxima solves x^2-r*x-s^2-r*s=0 giving the symbolic results [x=r+s, x=-s]. Maxima can calculate with exact integers and fractions, native floating-point and high-precision big floats. Maxima has user-friendly front-ends, an on-line manual, plotting commands, and numerical libraries. Users can write programs in its native programming language, and many have contributed useful packages in a variety of areas over the decades. Maxima is GPL-licensed and largely written in Common Lisp. Executables can be downloaded for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android; source code is also available. An active community maintains and extends the system. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Maxima is avilable in many if not all Linux distributions, I checked openSUSE, Fedora, Debian and Arch.

I don't quite like the SUSE packaging with splitting out the language packs, but the Fedora packaging, while using another strategy, isn't really better, so that's ok. What's not quite ok are the setup.hint files, IMHO. You have 7 packages and all ldesc's and sdesc's are exactly identical. While that's perhaps not much of a problem for the language packs, it certainly is for "maxima" vs. "maxima-exec-clisp" and "maxima-xmaxima". How's the user to know what each of these packages is doing when looking them up in setup? maxima "Maxima Computer Algebra System" maxima-exec-clisp "Maxima Computer Algebra System" maxima-xmaxima "Maxima Computer Algebra System" Package is GTG With a change to the sdescs to allow a user at least a bit of information in sdesc what the subpackages are doing.
