Hello,
concerning the coming version of GSl, I have a very naive question: will it support x86_64 machine ? if no, is there any project to do so ?
Thanks, Jerome
The GSL is already standard fare in a number of distributions, e.g. FCX and RHEL that contain full support for both i386 and x86_64. I've been using x86_64 gsl since FC2 (GSL 1.3?).
If you want it to "just appear" in your distribution you may have to wait -- they will lag a new release by weeks, months or even "forever" in the case of older RHEL versions. Supported doesn't mean that they upgrade right away to the latest version of all provided tools and libraries, just that they'll fix the older versions for bugs.
However, I expect that source rpms for the latest version will appear pretty rapidly. When they do, use yum and create a local repository and you can install it on e.g. a cluster of Opterons very simply. Or somebody on list may be able to direct you to a yummified repository that will have it ASAP anyway.
