This page lists all optional PARI/GP packages made available by the PARI group. These packages use up a nonnegligible amount of disk space and will be useless for most users, hence they are distributed separately and maintained independently. They are rarely upgraded so most of them will only be downloaded once.

All packages are © the PARI group, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL version 2 or any later version).

Note: some browsers will silently gunzip the downloaded files, and save the .tar, whose size and checksums will be different.

Installation

To use a package with the daily Windows GP binary

Simply extract the archive in same folder as gp.exe (this will create a 'data' subfolder).

To install a package from a source distribution.

Extract the archive in the toplevel pari directory before running ./Configure. Then run make install as usual.

To install a package into an existing PARI/GP installation.

This is in particular the only method available to users of the Windows self-extracting binary.

Extract the archive anywhere you like, which will create a 'data' folder. Open 'data' and move the folder it contains (e.g. elldata) to the directory where the installer placed architecture independent files. The default destinations are

  /usr/local/share/pari              (Unix)
  C:\Program Files\PARI              (Win32)
