[gentoo-science] maxima-5.15.0 and related stuff in Gentoo

[gentoo-science] maxima-5.15.0 and related stuff in Gentoo

[Andrey G. Grozin]

Hello *,

I was at a conference, and could not do the ebuilds earlier.
Here we go:

1. maxima-5.15.0.ebuild is in the science overlay.

If you want to emerge it with USE=gcl, please, use gcl from the lisp 
overlay:

http://repo.or.cz/w/gentoo-lisp-overlay.git

because gcl in the portage tree is broken.

It now includes imaxima; if you emerged it before, you will have to 
unmerge it. It depends on dev-tex/mh (which includes the newest breqn). 
dev-tex/mh has the only keyword ~amd64; of course, it is absolutely 
computer-independent, so, just include the line

dev-tex/mh ~amd64

to your package.keywords

Sorry for all this mess; this is not me who created it.

2. wxmaxima-0.7.5 is also in the science overlay.

3. If you want to use maxima from TeXmacs, update to texmacs-1.0.6.14-r1 
from the same overlay.

Have fun,
Andrey

Too bad, I bumped it in the main tree earlier on.

I will check this and add proper deps to the tree one. Thanks!

Please bump also wxmaxima

[gentoo-science] mathgl-1.6.2 and udav-0.3.2

[Andrey G. Grozin]

Hello *,

I've just committed to the science overlay:

mathgl-1.6.2 (Math Graphics Library)

udav-0.3.2 (Universal Data Array Visualization)

It seems that this library is quite powerful: it knows a lot of 2d and 3d 
plot types, and can produce plots in many formats (both vector and pixel). 
It also has a built-in scripting language.

udav is a GUI (fltk) program based on this library - it allows one to 
write scripts and get plots without writing C++ code.

Please have a look.

I use sbcl for all of my Common Lisp applications now. Will this require 
any changes?

If you emerge maxima with USE flags emacs and latex, the new ebuild will 
also install imaxima (and this is good). In this case you should unmerge 
imaxima, and add the line

dev-tex/mh ~amd64

to package.keywords (otherwise the dependency, dev-tex/mh, cannot be 
installed).

Attempts to compile mathgl with fltk fail.

The patch doesn't add the -L option to the test program used to look for
main() in -lfltk:

checking fltk-1.1/FL/Fl_Export.H usability... yes
checking fltk-1.1/FL/Fl_Export.H presence... yes
checking for fltk-1.1/FL/Fl_Export.H... yes
checking for main in -lfltk... no
Please install fltk library
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

This part:

-AC_CHECK_LIB([fltk], [main], [(test x$all = xtrue || test x$fltk = xtrue) && FLTK_LIBS="-lfltk -lfltk_images" AC_SUBST(FLTK_LIBS)],
+AC_CHECK_LIB([fltk], [main], [(test x$all = xtrue || test x$fltk = xtrue) && FLTK_LIBS="-L/usr/lib/fltk-1.1 -lfltk -lfltk_images -lXft" AC_SUBST(FLTK_LIBS)],

only changes the results if the test works, it doesn't fix the test to
work.

I don't know which ebuild to best point you to for the proper fix.

xpp exports LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS.  pose creates a temp dir, symlinks the
installed include and lib directories under it and passes that as the
arg to --with-fltk.  

Maybe freefem++ does it best:

        use fltk && append-cppflags $(fltk-config --cflags)

Otherwise, mathgl looks to install OK.

I still have to test out udav (OOo is downloading right now.  And will
be for several more hours..... ;)

[gentoo-science] media-gfx/asymptote

[Andrey G. Grozin]

Hello *,

The asymptote ebuild needs some major modifications (for one thing, it 
depends on virtual/tetex, and cannot be used by those of us who have 
switched to texlive). I have a new ebuild, with many changes, for a newer 
version. metadata.xml says that it belongs to no-herd and maintained by 
maintainer-needed@gentoo.org . Does this mean that I may simply change 
metadata.xml (herd = sci, maintainer = myself) and commit a new ebuild?

Yes Andrey, you can go ahead and add your name in metadata.xml. As for
adding the herd, it means other team members accept to take care of
the package as a backup of yourself (it can be the other way around
but it doesn't look like it's the case here). So either you talk to
them about this or you're in a position to make that decision alone,
in which case I'd still talk to the others anyway. For your info, only
one of dev/herd is mandatory, but both of them is better.

Denis.
