[GAP Forum] Important news for users and installers of GRAPE

[Leonard Soicher]

Hello GAP-Forum,

I installed nauty 2.6 (r2), and ran GRAPE 4.7, setting

GRAPE_NAUTY := true; 
GRAPE_DREADNAUT_EXE := "mypathto/nauty26r2/dreadnaut";

Initial basic tests indicate that GRAPE 4.7 works with nauty 2.6 (r2),
but I will continue with further checks. 

I remark that I have had a problem with bliss crashing on occasion. 

Regards,
Leonard

Thanks for the notice.

I am on my way to update the nauty package for Debian [1] and to resume
the packaging for GRAPE [2].

Thanks,
Jerome
