Subject: [WIP PATCH] gnu: flint: Build with ntl.
Date: Sun, 29 Mar 2020 22:32:24 +0200
* gnu/packages/algebra.scm (flint)[inputs]: Add ntl.
  [arguments]: Pass --with-ntl to configure.
---
This is required by sagemath, but the patch as written makes the build
error:

/gnu/store/9yzqiiyfhxi4yhndp46nndi77ica9g4i-ntl-11.4.3/include/NTL/vector.h:201:31: error: invalid conversion from ‘const NTL::Vec<NTL::ZZ>*’ to ‘int’ [-fpermissive]
  201 | { VecStrategy<NTL_RELOC_TAG>::do_BlockConstructFromVec(p, n, q); }
      |                               ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |                               |
      |                               const NTL::Vec<NTL::ZZ>*

Arch Linux seems to be using the same version of ntl and flint, and I
don't see any special workarounds in their PKGBUILDs. I guessed that the
gcc version might be influencing things, but adding gcc-9 to
native-inputs didn't help. Does Guix set up GCC with some non-standard
default flags, maybe?

Sure it would! I just did.

Thanks!
