[gentoo-science] freemat-2.0 at gentooscience.org

[Andrey G. Grozin]

Hello *,

I've just commited a freemat-2.0 ebuild to the Gentoo science overlay.
freemat seems to be a rather powerful matlab (quasi-) clone.
It depends on qt-4 and some packages from the overlay (umfpack, arpack).
It also depends on sci-libs/matio which I commited to the overlay some 
time ago. This last package is somewhat problematic: I found no normal 
downloading url, downloading requires clicking some buttons at some page 
(though it's free all right, LGPL). If you have the USE flag "fortran", a 
fortran interface to the library should be built; but this requires either 
g95 or gfortran. I have neither, so I build matio with -fortran; if 
somebody could check if it builds with gcc-4.1 with g95, I'd be grateful. 
It is also interesting if matio and freemat can be built on amd64. Please 
test this package, it seems interesting.

I don't mean to ask a dumb question but how do I get at this gentoo
science overlay?

Thanks,
Andrew

I can't build this ebuild, because the suggested link ends up with
downloading matio.zip which is of version 1.3.0, and it seemingly
differs from one that required (1.1.4), so I am out of luck...


Can you please look at the problem?

Thanks for a very interesting ebuild, BTW.

I too am interested in this program.  I also am stuck with matio
install.  I didn't realize the version had changed.  I filed a "bug"
or whatever related to this on gentooscience.org.

http://gentooscience.org/ticket/55

In that "ticket" I had regenerated the digest with the new version.  I
ended up with a compile failure with the old ebuild.

I know this does not help much but I am intersted in getting this working too.

Not experimenting with the ebuilds, just out of curiosity I've
downloaded FreeMat-2.0 sources from its page. After unpacking them I
have FreeMat-2.0/extern/Packages directory containing seamingly all the
dependencies for the package. There is matio.zip of 1.1.6 version there.

Are there any problems in using the sources provided with FreeMat itself?

Why don't you make the next logical step and include sources of glibc? 
Shouls every package include sources of each library it uses? How many 
copies of each library, of different versions, in different directories, 
I'll have? Some other packages use arpack and umfpack, why FreeMat should 
have its own versions of them?

This goes against modularity, *the* fundamental principle of any good 
Linux distribution.

Also, the default build of FreeMat-2.0 is absolutely incompatible with the 
FHS standard.

The specific question about building FreeMat-2.0 with matio-1.3.0 is, 
probably, not too difficult. I'll have a look today in the evening, and 
(if I'll succeed) I'll put the necessary changes to gentooscience.org.

Yes, there were backward-incompatible changes in matio. Fortunately, 
rather trivial. The updated ebuilds for matio and FreeMat at at 
gentooscience.org. Please check them.

I've fixed the downloading url for matio. Now
emerge freemat
should work completely automatically, without the need to download 
anything by hand.

I almost build succesfully, but I get some error on the very last step.
I suspect the problem is somewhere in general config, rather than in
particular "matio", but googling did not help for me.

Can you please help me?

Arrgh!!

This kind of access violation again. I was told that they have been fixed 
once and for all.

This has nothing to do with matio. This sort of thing happend to me 
innumerable times, for various packages. What happens:

1. Some ebuild (usually with the USE flag "doc") starts latex
2. Some font used in the latex file has not yet been used on this 
   particular computer
3. latex starts metafont to generate this font
4. metafont wants to write it to /var/cache/fonts
5. This triggers sandbox violation

I don't know how to fight against this. The only way seems to emerge with 
sandboxing switched off. The next time the same package can be emerged in 
the normal way, because all fonts used in its documentation has been 
already generated.

This is *absolutely* generic problem, and something should be done about 
it.

Hi,

Have a look at [1] and the links therein which provide some 
info on how to work with the sandbox. Keep in mind, though, that 
these commands should only be used if there really is no other way
(such as patching the makefile etc.) to get rid of the
sandbox violations; the sandbox is present for a very good reason!
An ebuild in portage that shows these commands in action would be
app-text/ptex-3.1.8.1_p20050418

Best,
Markus

I have another problem with the maito ebuild.  This is the compile error I get.

/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile i686-pc-linux-gnu-gfortran -I.
-I../src/fortran -O3 -ffast-math -Wl,-s -g -O2 -c -o matio.lo `test -f
'fortran/matio.f90' || echo './'`fortran/matio.f90
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../src/matio.mod', needed by
`all-am'.  Stop.

This is on a gcc 4.1 machine if that makes any difference.  If you
need more info let me know.

I don't have any fortran-90 (or 95) compiler installed on my computer, and 
I have no experience of using them anyway. This is why I asked those who 
has it to test this ebuild with the USE flag fortran. Now you say it does 
not work. Unfortunately, I don't know how to fix fortran-related problems. 
If you really want to use the fortran interface to the matio library, then 
please try to fix it, and tell me how you did it. If you just want to 
emerge freemat, then just emerge matio with -fortran (i.e., add the line
sci-libs/matio -fortran
to your /etc/portage/package.use

Thanks for the pointer. I think I've fixed the immediate problem.

But I got such sandbox violations when emerging packages from the main 
portage tree more than once. Many packages use LaTeX for documentation; 
metafont can be called at any moment. Shouldn't the directories to which 
it writes generated fonts be added to SANDBOX_WRITE globally? Then the 
level of users' frustration would be lower.

Andrey,

although I built "matio" I still can not succeed with "freemat" with

AMD.tar.gz is a aprt of umfpack-4.6.ebuild (also from the sci overlay).
This ebuild (by Sebastien Fabbro) contained the download url 
http://www.cise.ufl.edu/research/sparse/amd/current/AMD.tar.gz
But now current points to a different version! I don't know if it is 
backward-compatible or not. Therefore, I've just changed the download url 
to a fixed version - the version 1.2, which was used by this ebuild 
initially.

So, please, remove AMD.tar.gz and try again. Sorry about inconvenience 
(but this is even nor my ebuild :-)

[Andrey G. Grozin]

Hello *,

Is it just me, or is the gentooscience.org website working very unstable 
lately? Failures are intermittent, but very often I see a python traceback 
like this

Python traceback

Traceback (most recent call last):

instead of a page. When I first click "Browse Source", this happens with
practically 100% probability; then the second or third attempt succeeds. 
Similarly, when browsing the tree, I sometimes get a python traceback, but 
repeating what I want to do several times I get what I wanted.

Such things never happened before some great software upgrade on this 
server which has broken it completely. Now it (kind of) works, but very 
unstably.

I'd like to add my keenness why our overlay is not moved to 
overlays.g.o, yet. Are there some special arguments against doing this?

With regards,

I did svn up, removed stale AMD.tar.gz (those version-less zips are
suspicious, IMO)

AMD.tar.gz now not a problem, but due to further similar files system is
unhappy again (sorry for lenghty output, and thanks for helping)

The same sort of thing... I've changed to download url to a fixed version.

Oops, this is my error :-( Forgot to svn add this file. Now fixed.

Please try again

You see - it is really important that somebody else (not just the author 
of an ebuild) emerge the package - I have all these files already, and 
cannot see all these problems.

Many thanks and hope this time everything will be OK,

As I said:

with the USE flag fortran, the matio ebuild tries to build a fortran 
interface to the matio library, (and it needs a fortran-90 or -95 
compiler. I have neither of them, and don't know how to use them, 
therefore, I never tested this. If you know fortran-90 and f95, you are 
more than welcome to fix this problem, and this will improve the matio 
ebuild.

However, if you only want freemat, this is not necessary. Just emerge 
matio with -fortran, i.e., add the line
sci-libs/matio -fortran
to your /etc/portage/package.use
