I am trying to make an spkg for 4ti2, but I am having trouble getting
it to recognize GMP.  I'm sure many people on this list are more
qualified than I am to figure that out.

t4i2 requires the linear programming package glpk, which I think I did
succeed in making an spkg for - at least it works on my mac, and its
pretty minimal so I would think it works on linux.

My current attempts are at:

http://www.d.umn.edu/~mhampton/4ti2.p0.spkg
http://www.d.umn.edu/~mhampton/glpk.p0.spkg

in case anyone wants to take a look and fix or improve them.
