[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated for cygwin-1.7: {gmp/libgmp3/libgmpxx3/libgmp-devel}-4.2.4-2


Version 4.2.4-2 of gmp, libgmp3, libgmpxx3 and libgmp-devel have been uploaded. This is the first release for cygwin-1.7

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION
===================

Homepage: http://gmplib.org/
License : GNU LGPL

GMP is a free library for arbitrary precision arithmetic, operating
on signed integers, rational numbers, and floating point numbers. There
is no practical limit to the precision except the ones implied by the
available memory in the machine GMP runs on. GMP has a rich set of
functions, and the functions have a regular interface.

CHANGES SINCE LAST RELEASE
==========================

Three upstream patches post gmp-4.2.4, from http://gmplib.org/, are included.

The DLL for the C++ binding cyggmpxx-3.dll has been moved to a new package libgmpxx3. This is in preparation for a bump in the version number once the package is compiled with g++-4.

NOTE
====

Starting with release gmp-4.2.2, the upstream build increased the
version number of libgmpxx.  This change was reverted as cyggmpxx-3.dll
is backward compatible with the previous 4.1 and 4.2 releases.

INSTALL OR UPGRADE NOTES
========================

Standard install.
