Maxima 5.9.1.9rc1 (release candidate for 5.9.2) available



hello,

i am pleased to announce that maxima 5.9.1.9rc1 is available.
this is the first release candidate for maxima 5.9.2.

it would be very helpful if you can download the source and/or binary
and try it out. please post success/failure reports.

version 5.9.1.9rc1 can be obtained via cvs:

  cvs  update  -r  version-5919rc1

or these files can be downloaded:

  http://maxima.sf.net/tmp-release/maxima-5.9.1.9rc1-2.src.rpm
  http://maxima.sf.net/tmp-release/maxima-5.9.1.9rc1.tar.gz
  http://maxima.sf.net/tmp-release/maxima-5.9.1.9rc1.zip

NOTE: the tar file is the result of ``make dist-gzip''. 
it is not the same as tarring all the cvs files.
the zip file is equivalent to the tar file.

  http://maxima.sf.net/tmp-release/maxima-exec-gcl-5.9.1.9rc1-2.i386.rpm
  http://maxima.sf.net/tmp-release/maxima-xmaxima-5.9.1.9rc1-2.i386.rpm

  http://maxima.sf.net/tmp-release/maxima-5.9.1.9rc1-2.md5

(the files are on the project website, instead of in the SF file release
manager, due to technical difficulties which i hope to resolve soon.)

the binary rpms were built on a fedora 1 system, kernel 2.4.22,
gcc 3.3.2, gcl 2.6.7.

if someone can create a windows binary, that would be terrific.

hope this helps,
robert dodier
