I've maintained the sci-libs/sympy ebuild (bug# 192785) in sunrise for |
| 2 |
some time. Now Mateusz Paprocki provided an updated ebuild [1], but I've |
| 3 |
got a few questions before I put it in sunrise: |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
- sympy uses libxml2 and libxslt to generate MathML code. Which USE-flag |
| 6 |
would be more appropriate, `xslt' or `math' (or intruduce `mathml')? |
| 7 |
app-office/abiword-plugins and www-apps/mediawiki both use the math use |
| 8 |
flag to enable math rendering, but as Andrey Grozin pointed out sympy |
| 9 |
provides math rendering via LaTeX, mathml, TeXmacs, so using `math' |
| 10 |
would be ambiguous. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
- Should there be a USE-flag that pulls in TeXmacs? If yes, which one? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
- Once again for plotting. Uses pyglet ([2]), which is not yet in |
| 15 |
portage but comes packaged with sympy. Which USE flag? Just `opengl' or |
| 16 |
a new `plot' flag? |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
- General ebuild review is also appreciated :) |
