I bumped ntl to 8.1.2 in the tree. Both Singular and Macaulay2 fail |
| 31 |
with something like |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
NTLconvert.cc:523:79: error: invalid cast from type ‘const |
| 34 |
NTL::WrappedPtr<void, NTL::ZZ::Deleter>’ to type ‘long int*’ |
| 35 |
int cc= mpn_get_str (cf_stringtemp, 16, (mp_limb_t *) (((long *) |
| 36 |
(a.rep)) + 2), sizeofrep); |

So I restricted the deps for now. Flint works, and eclib and linbox are |
| 42 |
not in the main tree or science overlay, so I consider those your |
| 43 |
business :) |
