I had trouble getting it to build on Solaris 8. I was successful in getting a downgraded version installed and it has worked (almost flawlessly). Math-Pari-2.010305 is the version I used. The one flaw that I know of happens when I use Net::SFTP (wraps Net::SSH::Perl) and try to leave the connection up constantly, making lots of directory listings every minute or so (aka 50+ directories listed every minute), after about 2.5 hours Math::Pari throws a memory error and crashes the whole program. I haven't tried upgrading recently (install was done in 05/2003). My version of Pari is 2.1.5, and in trying to track it down I noticed this page, which you might try: http://www.boksa.de/tutorials/pari_macosx.mpp HTH, http://danconia.org
