Description leo lenoir 2012-05-29 20:07:46 CEST
Giac/Xcas is a free computer algebra system for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux/Unix (license GPL3, for commercial dual-license contact us). From UJF at Grenoble.

    Xcas is an interface to perform computer algebra, function graphs, interactive geometry (2-d and 3-d), spreadsheet and statistics, programmation. It may be used as a replacement for high end graphic calculators for example on netbooks (for about the same price as a calculator but with much more performances).

Newest debian package an tarball : http://www.math.jussieu.fr/~han/xcas/

Homebrew rpm made with alien seems working fine.

Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes.
