Description (last modified by jdemeyer)

On Cygwin, PARI produces not only a shared library dll file but also an import dll.a file. Nonetheless, the dll.a is not copied by the install targets of the Makefile.

And having it would ensure that other shared libraries linked with -lpari would link to libpari.dll rather than libpari.a (and some as eclib won't work with libpari.a anyway, see #13325), because ld looks in order for dll.a, then a, then dll.

This has been included upstream, see git rev 2c34d58be7f844581733e7c2b96f2a60ee3eb82a and ffd02415dde8a48f7c06765635b0457b23ba60e8

I'll post an updated spkg based on #13320 when this gets positive review.

No return from upstream yet (which means some weeks now). If someone thinks the changes made here are logical, let's use the spkg at ​http://perso.telecom-paristech.fr/~flori/sage/pari-2.5.2.p1.spkg in Sage. At least they make sure that the shared version of Pari is found before the static one when linking (and so surely fix broken pieces of Sage) by only copying a file produced by Pari itself (the only drawback might be that linking should be a little slower, but Cygwin is already slow as hell and I did not notice any difference).

This should be rebased on top of #13314.

  • Report Upstream changed from Reported upstream. No feedback yet. to Fixed upstream, but not in a stable release.
  • Work issues changed from Rebase on #13314 to Add PARI fix to #13314

such a change has been integrated upstream: ​http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/archives/pari-dev-1209/msg00041.html I'll package a version of #13314 inlcuding the corresponding commit (GIT rev 2c34d58be7f8).

  • Status changed from positive_review to needs_work

In the PARI spkg, patches are supposed to be documented in patches/README.txt. Also, I prefer a more descriptive name for the patch file than "Makefile.SH.patch".

I made those fixes in #13534. You could either make those changes here, or wait for #13534 (then this gets closed as duplicate).

comment:16 Changed 8 years ago by jpflori

I'd say let's get this merged with #13534, that's perfectly fine for me.
