Description Hans Loeblich 2019-07-25 02:15:58 UTC

I have some PARI scripts which make use of parallel computation, but the repo package is not built to support threads.  

Steps to reproduce:
1) run "gp --version"

Actual results:
GP/PARI CALCULATOR Version 2.11.1 (released)
                                                                           amd64 running linux (x86-64/GMP-6.1.2 kernel) 64-bit version
                                                            compiled: openSUSE, gcc version 9.1.1 20190611 [gcc-9-branch revision 272147] (SUSE Linux)
                                                                                             threading engine: single
                                                                                 (readline v8.0 disabled, extended help enabled)

Expected Results:
...
threading engine: pthread
...

By the way, the fix for this should be just adding "--mt=pthread" option when calling the configure script for pari.  

I don't know anything about SUSE builds/packaging to attempt o submit a patch though.

Added --mt=pthread.
