Are there any open Bugzilla PRs that should be resolved first, or this diff can be committed right away?

Here we are!

Ok, let's add the ECL option then and set it as default.
Do you want to modify your review yourself or do you prefer that I commandeer the revision and make the changes?

Update to the 9.1 release.

If, for some reason, we found out that it is a bad idea to set ecl as the default lisp (I will investigate on that) other easier solutions might be:

• create maxima-sage as a slave port of maxima;
• maybe use flavors?

In any case, I think it would be a good idea to create the ECL option in the traditional maxima port and I would thank you if could do that :)

Note: math/maxima and math/maxima-sage install the same files: a CONFLICT line should be added in math/maxima.

Note: lang/ecl and lang/ecl-sage install the same files: a CONFLICT line should be added in lang/ecl.

With the two new ports lang/ecl-sage and math/maxima-sage (See D24958 and D24959), the main problem of this port are solved!

Update to 9.1.rc5 and use more Python modules from the ports tree.

Some news:
+ r535281 on math/giacxcas fixed problems in libgiac and indirectly in other libs (e.g. mpfi)

• Upgrade to 9.1.rc4;

I have not yet updated with your latest version, but with the first one, pkg-config already reported:

Latest evolution, with zn_poly taken from ports.

More progresses: now Maxima and GAP are fixed.

At some point I was fighting against libomp, brought directly clang from devel/llvm90 for testing purpose… and forgot to remove it! This version is much cleaner.

Switch to 9.1-rc2, with some minor fixes.

Now that gfan is borrowed from ports, we don't need files/patch-build_pkgs_gfan_spkg-install.in, I presume?

Many progresses with 9.1.rc1: more modules are no more built by Sage but taken from system packages, and this solves the staging problems with them.

Just after upgrading R:

AFAIK the only change is from Antoine:

I'm working on an update to catch sage-9.1.beta9, but it is not yet ready…

I think you can extend this date if you're working on it.

New diff, created when using sage-9.1.beta9.

For some reason, I can't apply this diff onto current tree. Maybe rebasing it will help?
