Severity: wishlist
* Package name : zimpl
Version : 3.7.0
Upstream Contact: Thorsten Koch <[email protected]>
* URL : https://zimpl.zib.de/
* License : LGPL-3+
Programming Lang: C
Description : mathematical modeling language for optimization problems
Zimpl allows the specification of certain optimization problems - linear
programs (LPs) and mixed integer programs (MIPs) - in a high-level
description language. These descriptions can be converted into the
LP or MPS file formats which are understood by LP and MIP solvers.
This package was formerly in Debian, but was removed (#977951) due to being
part of a larger software package with a non-free license. Presumably this
larger package was SCIP (https://www.scipopt.org/) and the non-free license
was the ZIB Academic License. However, although there no longer appear to
be ZIMPL tarballs available for download, it is still maintained in its
own git repository (https://github.com/scipopt/zimpl). Furthermore, SCIP
has since moved to a free license (Apache 2.0).
I am currently in the process of packaging SCIP (#1039923), and ZIMPL is an
optional component that would be nice to have. In particular, the
MonomialIntegerPrograms package in Macaulay2 makes calls to SCIP using the
ZIMPL language.
I plan to maintain this package under the umbrella of the Debian Math Team.

Closes: 1126464
Changes:
zimpl (3.7.0+ds-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Re-introduce to Debian (Closes: #1126464).
* Split into three binary packages (zimpl, libzimpl0, and libzimpl-devel).
* debian/control
- Update Maintainer (now Debian Math Team) and add Uploaders field.
- Update Vcs-* fields.
- Drop Priority field; "optional" is now the default.
- Drop redundant Rules-Requires-Root field.
- Bump Standards-Version to 4.7.3.
- Add cmake to Build-Depends
- Add ghostscript, texlive-fonts-extra, texlive-latex-recommded, and
texlive-latex-base to Build-Depends for building documentation.
* debian/copyright
- Stop excluding documentation pdf; its source is included.
- Remove some directories that aren't included in the tarball generated
by scripts/makedist.sh (which doesn't appear to be hosted anywhere).
Some of the files have questionable licenses (images, etc.).
- Remove old physical Free Software Foundation address from license texts.
- Update upstream copyright years.
- Add license info for some cmake files.
- Add myself to copyright holders for debian directory.
* debian/gbp.conf
- New file; set pristine-tar to True and debian-branch to
debian/latest.
* debian/libzimpl0.symbols
- Add symbols file.
* debian/patches/adapt-build-system
- Remove patch; we now use the cmake build.
* debian/patches/check-abort.patch
- Only check for "Aborted" in error tests. Sometimes "(core dumped)"
doesn't appear (e.g., on Salsa CI runners).
* debian/patches/display-test-failures
- Remove patch to minimize diff from upstream and ease maintenance.
* debian/patches/fix-warnings
- Remove patch; issues fixed upstream.
* debian/patches/shared-library.patch
- New patch from Fedora; build a shared library.
* debian/patches
- Add .patch suffix to remaining patches so Emacs fires up the correct
major mode.
* debian/README.Debian
- Remove file; no longer accurate as we now distribute the
documentation.
* debian/README.source
- Remove file; the fact that we use quilt is clear from "3.0 (quilt)"
in d/source/format, so no reason to document it further.
* debian/rules
- Switch buildsystem to cmake.
- Drop override_dh_auto_build target; no longer necessary to manually
set build flags.
- Remove override_dh_install target; dh_install now does the right
thing by default.
- Remove DH_VERBOSE comment.
- Remove unnecessary override_dh_auto_clean target.
- Update override_dh_auto_test target to run check.sh script.
- Add execute_after_dh_auto_build target for building documentation.
- Add execute_after_dh_auto_clean target for cleaning up artifacts
from building documentation.
* debian/salsa-ci.yml
- Add Salsa CI config file.
* debian/tests/control
- Set Depends for autopkgtest to be just zimpl.
* debian/watch
- Use uscan v4.
- Update to use GitHub tags.
- Deal with repack suffix.
* debian/zimpl.doc-base
- New file; register documentation with doc-base.
* debian/zimpl.docs
- Rename from docs.
- Install pdf documentation.
