Greetings,
We are preparing a major update for 'libtommath' library [1]. The last stable release happened more than 5 years ago, so there are a lot of changes and improvements over the time.
Although there are still some open requests in upstream, the current library state looks pretty stable to me. Along with multiple enhancements the core contributors removed a lot of deprecated stuff from the code, and we cleaned up makefiles and the Fedora package spec to bring more logic in there.
All 'libtommath' shared library and bundled version users are encouraged to test their code and/or packages against the current development version of the library.
There is a Copr repo with packages for the development version [2]. Any feedback and suggestions are very welcome.
Known issues: --------------------- 1) Build permanently fails for epel7 ppc64le. It's a bug in 'ghostscript' [3], and there was even a workaround in epel7 branch [4];
2) Build appeared to be failing in rawhide, I suspect there is broken 'texlive'.
Both problems can be avoided with excluding pdf docs from the package, and I do hope that 'texlive' will be fixed in rawhide soon (I haven't checked the problem in details though).
