Package request: Sagemath #577

Open DavidKz opened 5 years ago

DavidKz commented 5 years ago

Sagemath is a bundling of several independent math projects in a Jupyter-style notebook interface. It may benefit from CL's optimization, possibly in the FLINT/NTL libraries. It does not appear to be available via flatpack, only docker/virtualbox images without optimization.

I've been having an argument with this guy on and off today, and so far it is arjan 0 - sagemath 4

the build system of this package is ... unconventionally complicated

Would it be better if I suggested non-existing elements of Sagemath separately? I didn't do this at first, as I had read that Clear had logistic limits on the number of bundles.

I'm having a hard time parsing this sentence :) The bundle limit shouldn't be an obstacle to making sagemath functional - bundling it should be easy, I'm sure this fits in a currently existing bundle already.

Sorry, I missed this response earlier. What I meant was instead of treating Sagemath as a single large package, I was planning to go through the list of Sagemath's contents, and suggest components not already in Clear's repos. Instead of "non-existing", I should have said "non-duplicates". For example, many of the R-related tools in Sagemath already are in Clear's library.
