| pari-2.5.4(STABLE) released |
Dear PARI lovers,
I would like to announce the release of pari-2.5.4 (STABLE). The sources
and a basic Windows binary are available from
http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/download.html
This is a BUGFIX release for the stable branch. It fixes all significant problems
that could be fixed in a simple, harmless way. However we strongly encourage
you to upgrade since it fixes a number of cases where PARI was returning an
incorrect result.
--- For Windows users: ---
This time two basic Windows binaries are provided, depending of your system:
For XP, Vista: gp-2-5-4.exe
<http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/pub/pari/windows/gp-2-5-4.exe>
for Windows 7, 8: gp-readline-2-5-4.exe
<http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/pub/pari/windows/gp-readline-2-5-4.exe>
However, we invite you to download both binaries and use the one that
work better on your system.
---------------------------
Thanks to all those who reported problems, on the mailing lists or through
our Bug Tracking System. ( See http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/Bugs/ ), or
who tested the prelease.
Have fun,
Bill and Karim
