| Subject: | Math::Pari Won't Install Because It Can't Find the GP/PARI on megrez.math.u-bordeaux.fr |
Math::Pari won't install at all, because the required GP/PARI won't
download from the u-bordeaux site. (Transcript follows.) I run debian,
and I installed the debian gp-pari packages, but apparently even that
isn't good enough.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Do you want to me to fetch GP/PARI automatically?
(If you do not, you will need to fetch it manually, and/or direct me to
the directory with GP/PARI source via the command-line option
paridir=/dir)
Make sure you have a large scrollback buffer to see the messages, or `tee'
the STDOUT/STDERR to a file.
