Add flint support #157

Closed louisaslett closed 7 months ago

louisaslett commented 7 months ago

This adds support for FLINT (Fast Library for Number Theory).

Currently the library is in Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and Fedora, but not in RHEL type distros, including CentOS or Rocky.

The library is currently in testing branch of Alpine, so we will need to wait for release.

I've confirmed that make test-all RULES=rules/flint.json passes with no errors.

For the record, this is how to install from a non-default repo on Alpine: https://github.com/rstudio/r-system-requirements/blob/7cfee2440e74c2a4311fcd2b35e894b2bae37efe/rules/udunits2.json#L122

Assuming that it works together with the native packages of the Alpine version, of course.
