[ANNOUNCEMENT] update: gsl-1.8-1 (GNU Scientific Library)

[Teun Burgers]

The cygwin gsl package (GNU Scientific Library) has been updated
to 1.8-1. This is a new upstream release.

For the announcement of gsl version 1.8 see:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gsl/2006-04/msg00000.html

The homepage for the GSL is http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/

The gsl package has been split in four parts:

gsl:	   the shared libraries (dlls)
gsl-apps:  gsl-histogram.exe and gsl-randist.exe
gsl-doc:   documentation
gsl-devel: development resources (headers, static- and import
            libraries)

NOTE: Starting from gsl-1.6-2,if you want to use the GSL, your path
should contain /usr/lib/lapack. This directory is added by
/etc/profile.d/lapack.sh. If you use the start-up scripts from the
base-files packages this script is executed automatically.
