Hello everyone,
I recently experienced a problem with pygsl-py25. When running the
interpreter in interactive mode, I would run the help() function. Once
there, I tried the modules command, and I would get this error:
help> modules
Please wait a moment while I gather a list of all available modules...
Traceback (most recent call last):

Recompiling and reinstalling pygsl-py25 fixed the problem.
It seems that the pygsl-py25, and possibly all of the pygsl packages,
should depend on the specific version of gsl current wen the update
occurs. Better would be if there was some way to have the system throw
in some kind of run-depends flag that makes it depend on the version
of gsl it was compiled with - otherwise the dependancy might be more
restrictive than it needs to be.
I seem to recall a similar issue with maxima having a dependancy on
the version of clisp it was compiled with. Perhaps that solution could
be adapted (or even improved) for this package?
Thanks,
Sean laek
