== Classified packages ==


=== Optional packages that need to be new-style packaged ===

Put here the old-style packages from above that are interesting from the Sage
perspective, do not put useless stuff here, only those you think are useful.

 * p_group_cohomology
 * patchbot
 * qepcad (was experimental, but can become optional new-style with #10224
  (needs review))


=== packages that are easily pip installable (hence can be removed) ===

Here are the old-style optional/experimental packages that do not need to be
repackaged since they are easily installable via pip install command.


 * beautifulsoup
 * biopython
 * brian
 * guppy
 * mpi4py
 * pybtex
 * pyx
 * sip
 * pynifti (superseeded by NiBabel pip-installable package)


=== Superseeded packages ===

Here are mathematical packages for which we found another way, hence can be removed.

 * gnuplotpy # we have our own interface
 * qhull # we already have two copies coming from the standard packages matplotlib and scipy
 * numarray # numpy
 * numeric # numpy
 * pygsl # we have our own interface



=== Unrelated packages ===

Here are non-mathematical packages that are not directly related to Sage and were not needed for a while.

Packages that have a Sage interface, so these are likely of interest:

=== packages appearing in Sage documentation ===

Here is the list of old-style packages which are documented
somewhere in Sage as being Sage packages
(this is orthogonal to there being a proper Sage interface).
If we stop supporting these packages,
we should adjust the documentation.

 * surf (package for Singular)

These appear only in the [[http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/thematic_tutorials/numerical_sage/index.html|Numerical Computing tutorial]], see also [[http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/19198|#19198]]:

Here are packages for which we found another way, hence can be removed.

 * gd # renamed to libgd
 * gdmodule # no longer needed

=== Superseded packages with no replacement yet ===

This is installable via `pip`, but it is also outdated:

This page aims at moving forward in the decision not to rely on old-style packaging system (therefore cleaning up all the Sage code that deals with that). See http://files.sagemath.org/spkg/index.html for the packages.

Packages that still require a decision

optional packages that still need to be classified

Here is the list of old-style optional packages for which it is not clear what to do (ignore, new-style repackage), they must eventually get moved to one of the classified lists.

  • extra_docs
  • java3d
  • nzmath
  • pycryptoplus
  • pyx
  • sip (also experimental)

unclassified experimental packages

Here is the list of old-style expermiental packages for which it is not clear whether they can be forgotten.

Since most of those packages are broken anyway, do not move them into some "please repackage me" section (unless you know how to let this happen and open a ticket for that).

  • cadabra
  • clapack
  • dvipng
  • gnofract4d
  • gnuplot

  • qasm2circ
  • quantlib, quantlib_swig
  • reallib3
  • sandpile
  • semigroupe
  • simpqs
  • superlu
