Hi, I've just upgraded it a few minutes ago. See my comments here: http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6456 I'm by far not an expert on building software and I only know that I wasn't able to compile cvxopt on my ubuntu linux machine. Therefore I did what I described above. If this spkg works for you I'm happy, otherwise these notes (and those in "SPKG.txt" inside the spkg file [it's a tar.gz]) might help you to accomplish something similar.
About getting this official: One requirement is that it must build and work on all supported platforms. In the past there were patches necessary for solaris and right now there are patches necessary to get it running on ubuntu linux. Therefore there is still a lot to do to get this running everywhere! greez harald On Jan 26, 1:47 pm, Dima Pasechnik <dimp...@gmail.com> wrote: > good that I saw this thread, as I was planning to create a > cvxopt-1.1.2 spkg > (I need it for my work...) > So, can this spkg be made "official" ? > > Thanks, > Dima > > On Jan 26, 7:35 am, William Stein <wst...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > On Mon, Jan 25, 2010 at 3:33 PM, Harald Schilly > > > <harald.schi...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > On Jan 25, 11:43 pm, William Stein <wst...@gmail.com> wrote: > > >> On Mon, Jan 25, 2010 at 7:11 AM, <axel.bre...@bnpparibas.com> wrote: > > > >> > However, I saw that SAGE is using CVXOPT 0.9 wheras the latest version > > >> > is > > >> > 1.1.2 > > > >> > Are you planning to upgrade that module ? > > > > CVXOPT is GPLv3+ , but we try to stay GPLv2+ ... so it's a licensing > > > issue. > > > It's not a show stopper though. > > > William > > > > I package a separate cvxopt spkg for me here: > > >http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/schilly/sage/spkg/ > > > > Note, it's not the official cvxopt, it's modified to work with ubuntu > > > linux and from an ubuntu/debian software directory. > > > > H > > > > -- > > > To post to this group, send email to sage-supp...@googlegroups.com > > > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > > > sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > > > For more options, visit this group > > > athttp://groups.google.com/group/sage-support > > > URL:http://www.sagemath.org > > > -- > > William Stein > > Associate Professor of Mathematics > > University of Washingtonhttp://wstein.org -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
