== Description ==
Symmetrica is a program developed by Lehrstuhl Mathematik II of the
University of Bayreuth. It has routines to handle the following topics
* ordinary representation theory of the symmetric group and related groups (2/11/04)
* ordinary representation theory of the classical groups
* modular representation theory of the symmetric group
* projective representation theory of the symmetric group
* combinatorics of tableaux
* symmetric functions and polynomials (7/22/04)
* commutative and non commutative Schubert polynomials
* operations of finite groups.
* ordinary representation theory of Hecke algebras of type A_n

* Mike Hansen
== Upstream Contact ==
* Axel Kohnert - see http://www.mathe2.uni-bayreuth.de/axel/
== Dependencies ==
* GNU patch (for applying the patches to upstream)
== Special Update/Build Instructions ==
The following patches are applied in spkg-install:
* bruch.patch: store integers in a temporary variable before freeing memory
* de.patch: turn off banner
* int32.patch: use int32_t and uint32_t for type INT.
* sort_sum_rename.patch: rename sort to sym_sort, sum to sym_sum
* We copy over our own Makefile:
patches/makefile (Fix compiler, i.e., use $CC, and let it use $CFLAGS.)
Permissions in the upstream tarball are funky, please run
"chmod 644 src/*" after unpacking.
== Changelog ==
=== symmetrica-2.0.p9 (Mike Zabrocki, 22 October 2013) ===
* #15312: fix instances of accessing pointers to memory which was free'd
=== symmetrica-2.0.p8 (Jeroen Demeyer, 17 October 2013) ===
* #13413: fix integer overflow bug on 64-bit systems, see int32.patch.
* Remove macro.h.patch (no longer needed due to change in Sage library)
* Use standard spkg-install template for applying patches.
=== symmetrica-2.0.p7 (Leif Leonhardy, October 6th 2011) ===
#10719 (Fix linker errors on OpenSUSE 11.2 and Ubuntu 11.10):
Additional reviewer changes:
* Add more error checks, normalize error messages.
* Set up flags in spkg-check as well, as we build the test
program there. Also use $MAKE there. Put CFLAG64 into
LDFLAGS if appropriate (i.e. SAGE64=yes).
* Clean up our Makefile, also use LDFLAGS when linking the test program.
* Add GNU patch to the dependencies.
=== symmetrica-2.0.p6 (Volker Braun, 28th September 2011) ===
* #10719: Change -lm option order in Makefile.
* Removed dist/ directory (obsolete Debian stuff).
* src/ is now the pristine upstream source, patches are applied in
spkg-install.
* Added spkg-check.
=== symmetrica-2.0.p5 (David Kirkby, 6th January 2009) ===
* Allow SAGE64 to work on any platform, not just OS X.
* Update the makefile to use '$(CC)' rather than use 'gcc'
=== symmetrica-2.0.p4 () ===
* ???????????????????????
=== symmetrica-2.0.p3 (Michael Abshoff, May 15th, 2009) ===
* Work around Solaris linker problem
* Apply patches to src directly against policy - see above
=== symmetrica-2.0.p2 (Michael Abshoff, April 3rd, 2008) ===
* OS 64 bit build support
* make sure SAGE_ROOT is defined
* Fix FreeBSD build issue
* Build symmetrica with -fPIC on Debian (Tim Abbott, #2791)
=== symmetrica-2.0.p1 (Tim Abbott) ===
* Add Debian build support
=== symmetrica-2.0.p0 (Mike Hansen) ===
* Change compile flags to "-O1" to reduce compile time by 2/3.
=== symmetrica-2.0 (Mike Hansen) ===
* update to latest release
=== symmetrica-0.3.3 (Mike Hansen) ===
