<p dir="auto">We need a solid and unambiguous behaviour of <code class="notranslate">map</code> for sparse matrices which would preserve sparse structure and keep the memory and computational burden small. Please consider conversation related to issue: <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="34080421" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/6918" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/JuliaLang/julia/issues/6918/hovercard" href="https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/6918">#6918</a>.</p>
<p dir="auto">There is a lot of unnecessary stuff in <code class="notranslate">make dist</code>:</p>
<ul class="contains-task-list">
<li class="task-list-item"><input type="checkbox" id="" disabled="" class="task-list-item-checkbox" checked=""> static libraries. I don't think they are needed.</li>
<li class="task-list-item"><input type="checkbox" id="" disabled="" class="task-list-item-checkbox" checked=""> readline libraries. I believe we statically link them so they shouldn't need to be distributed.</li>
<li class="task-list-item"><input type="checkbox" id="" disabled="" class="task-list-item-checkbox" checked=""> 3 copies of libarpack named <code class="notranslate">.so</code>, <code class="notranslate">.so.2</code>, and <code class="notranslate">.so.2.0.0</code>. Might be a problem in the arpack build, copying instead of making links perhaps.</li>
<li class="task-list-item"><input type="checkbox" id="" disabled="" class="task-list-item-checkbox" checked=""> 20MB of unicode test files. <code class="notranslate">make install</code> specifically runs <code class="notranslate">make -C test/unicode</code>. Why?</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">We could also remove the docs, since they are available online.</p>
