[opensuse-factory] Two new packages looking for devel projects
Hi! I have started looking at providing packages for several of the more useful packages and libraries for numeric computation [1]. This would hopefully fill a slight void that openSUSE still has with many of the libraries, packages and applications for advanced scientific computation not easily available/installable (this is strictly my opinion ;) ). The eventual goal is to also push some of these packages to Factory. To this end, I have packaged two c++ based libraries for fast numeric computation, namely armadillo [2] and blitz [3]. A little description about the packages:- Armadillo: 1. is in active development (last release was today!) 2. is licensed as LGPLv3+ 3. intended target audience is scientists and engineers Blitz: 1. Though still in active development (last CVS checkin on 2011-03-04), it's last official release was in 2005. 2. packaged version is licensed as GPLv2 (CVS snapshot version has moved to LGPLv3) 3. again, the intended target is scientists and engineers As far as I know there are no security issues with either of these packages. Both packages are in my home project at present [4], and I have tested them to build and work. I would be very grateful if someone could let me know what the right devel project these two packages could be pushed to. I am thinking devel:libraries:c_c++ but I am not sure. Thanks -- Atri [1] http://www.oonumerics.org/oon/ [2] http://arma.sourceforge.net/ [3] http://www.oonumerics.org/blitz/ [4] https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home%3Abadshah400 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

There is no "right" devel project for most things, but dlc sounds good to me, from what you describe science could be another option, even though it's stil unclarified where science starts and education ends ;)
Just submit to one of those 3. Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
