[ANNOUNCEMENT] Revoked: maxima-exec-clisp (was: Updated: maxima-5.35.1-3)

[Achim Gratz]

I've revoked the maxima-exec-clisp sub-package since at the moment it
doesn't survive a rebase of the clisp runtime libraries(*).  If you have
that package already installed please uninstall it manually (this should
keep the package maxima installed).  For new installations just use
maxima as the base installation package.  Aside from a slightly slower
startup nothing else is expected to change.

The package will be resurrected if and when Cygwin's clisp maintainer
and I can figure out a solution to the rebase problem.


(*) The failure manifests in "module 'syscalls' requires package OS."
message when you try to start maxima.



Regards,
Achim.

the last time I saw something like that was for dll built with
DLLTOOL/DLLWRAP when stripping the debug info.

Is eventually clisp still using same tools ?
