Hi, dev-libs/ntl is at 8.1.2 already (we have 6.* in the tree). I'd work on the bump if nobody else is. For the 6.* versions there is a patch which implements an error callback mechanism which is used in sage. In the 8.* versions ntl has its own error callback, but it has a different interface than the one in our patch. Will sage (when?) be able to deal with ntl's native mechanism or do we need the patch? I can translate it to the new version, but it may make no sense. Cheers, Thomas -- Thomas Kahle http://dev.gentoo.org/~tomka/
