Hi,
I've successfully created and updated the maxima 5.9.0.rc4 port on FreeBSD
4.7 using clisp. The update is pending commit into the ports tree. GCL is
broken on FreeBSD and I have not tried cmucl yet. The following issues
came up:
* plotting/omplotdata and plotting/mgnuplot do not appear to honor
./configure --with-wish=... Unfortunately, I don't know enough about
autoconf to generate patches for this. I think
interfaces/xmaxima/Tkmaxima/Header.tcl.in does this correctly.
* tests/Makefile.in uses ${INSTALL_PROGRAM} to install summarize-log
where ${INSTALL_SCRIPT} may be more appropriate? In any case,
${INSTALL_PROGRAM} fails on FreeBSD and ${INSTALL_SCRIPT}
succeeds. See attached patch-ad
* Are @dircategory and @direntry fields missing or needed in
doc/info/maxima.texi? I used patch-ae.
Maxima seems to run very well on FreeBSD.
Thanks for the great work!
