Package: maxima
Version: 5.20.1-5
Severity: normal
Hello Camm,
I am packaging a Scilab module called scimax. It allows the usage of Maxima
from Scilab.
However, to provide this link, scimax needs to build some lisp code.
The problem I am facing is that this is cannot be done at the construction
of the package since it is specific to the version of Maxima (ie, if I upgrate
maxima, scimax stops working).
The command is the following and the content of the file make.lisp is available
at the end of this bug report:
maxima -q --batch-string ":lisp (load \"make.lisp\")"
I would like to know if you could install a dpkg trigger (like python-support)
into Maxima to allow scimax to rebuilt itself when maxima is upgraded ?
Thanks,
Sylvestre
PS:
make.lisp:
-----------
($load "linearalgebra")
(handler-case
(progn
(compile-file "scimax.lisp")
(compile-file "scimath.lisp"))
(error () (progn
(format t "ERROR~%")
($quit))))
(format t "T~%")
-----------
