Title: wxMaxima gui for computer algebra
Post by: Tu71YE on 07 November 2022, 03:33:14
I use wxmaxima gui to the computer algebra system maxima.  After a recent artix update, it stopped working.  Maxima (command line) still works fine.  Unfortunately, I don't remember where I got wxmaxima in the first place, but maxima and maxima-ecl are from artix repos.

I first tried the PKGBUILD for wxmaxima from aur, but it failed:  could not resolve dependencies.  In case anyone is interested, I got the gui back by downloading "source code (tar.gz)" from github (https://github.com/wxMaxima-developers/wxmaxima/releases/tag/Version-22.03.0) and following the directions in the Compiling.md file.

Suggestion:  if someone has the inclination and the time, it would be nice to have wxmaxima in the artix repos.
