./math/nickle, Desk calculator language

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.97, Package name: nickle-2.97, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Nickle is a desk calculator language with powerful programming and
scripting capabilities. Nickle supports a variety of datatypes, espe-
cially arbitrary precision integers, rationals, and imprecise reals.
The input language vaguely resembles C. Some things in C which do not
translate easily are different, some design choices have been made dif-
ferently, and a very few features are simply missing.

Log message:
math/nickle: Fix cross-build, again.

This was fixed last year, and the fix was upstreamed, and the fix was
removed when we updated, and then upstream broke it again, so now we
have to fix it again.
