The version in the snapsht's setup.py was incorrect. ​​https://www.labri.fr/perso/vklein/gmpy2-snapshot-02.05.17.tar.gz ans checksum.ini have been updated

[vdelecroix]

See ​gmpy pull request #134 for making mpz(a) and mpq(a) call the methods .__mpz__() and .__mpq__() respectively.

Why the change in component? If you want to make it standard, it should be discussed on sage-devel.

Replying to jdemeyer:

Because of #23024. Of course it will be discussed on sage-devel. Note that the ticket status is new and there is no official release of gmpy2 yet.

Then why not keep it optional here and make it standard in #23024?

[vklein]

I don't see the point of keeping it optional here.

This ticket is a prerequisite of #22928 which is a prerequisite of #23024.

In my point of view, changes concerning gmpy2 package should be listed in this ticket, change concerning gmpy2 integration with sage in #22928 and change specifics to pplpy integration in #23024.

Replying to vklein:

I don't see the point of keeping it optional here.

And I don't see any reason to make it standard here. It's not used by anything, so why should it be standard?

"Just having plans to use it in the future" is not sufficient reason IMHO to make a package standard.

[jdemeyer]

Put in a different way: a Trac ticket should always be reviewed as a single unit. It's fine it the motivation for a Trac ticket comes from a different ticket, but the ticket should still make sense by itself.

[vklein]

And we can imagine an optional extension using gmpy2's C-API, ok i see your point.

Replying to vklein:

For now the check of the package fail

In that case, I'm not sure whether the package can be accepted. At a minimum, could you add a patch to disable the failing tests, such that gmpy2 at least formally passes its testsuite?

Second, you should better document how you obtained this tarball. Posting a tarball on your personal home page without further explanation is not sufficient. Is there any chance you could convince upstream to make a proper release? That would of course be much better.

Note that you have never set this ticket to needs_review. If you want this to be merged in Sage, you'll need to do that.

[vklein]

Is there any chance you could convince upstream to make a proper release?

Our goal has always be to have a proper release of gmpy2. It look like things are progressing well these last weeks. You can look at ​issue #146 if you want more specifics.
