Bug#886254: ITP: cuba -- library for multidimensional numerical integration
The package is available on salsa science-team group. However, it was rejected due to license issues discussed in [1]. I didn't receive feedback from upstream yet, and a similar package, cubature, was recently added to Debian. Hence, at the moment I am no longer very motivated to maintain the package. I am going to retitle the ITP to RFP, in case in future the copyright and proprietary license issues will be solved.

Hi Sébastien, Thanks for taking the time to review the package. On 4/17/19 2:55 PM, Sébastien Villemot wrote: — The autopkgtest does not work.

Now the test is a simple compile, link and run check. I checked that it succeeds adding the B20autopkgtest hook to pbuilder. — I think there is a typo in the long description of libcuba4. It talks about “libuba4-dev”, while I guess you meant “libcuba-dev”. Fixed, thanks. — In debian/changelog, you should keep the three former entries corresponding to the previous version of the package. Keeping the whole history of the package will facilitate the long-term maintenance. See https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/c/cuba/changelog-3.0%2B2024-2 That's a doubt I still had, thanks for bringing it up. I added back the old entries and more details about differences with the old package. Best, Francesco

I updated the package after going through Debian Science Policy and pushed the changes to the git repository. I'd appreciate if someone is available to sponsor the package. As mentioned in the ITP [1], a previous version of the library, libcuba3, was already in Debian and I based the package on that one. I reached out to the previous maintainer to verify that he is fine with me reintroducing the package. [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=886254 I also checked with upstream author that pointer overflow warnings I get when compiling (gcc 8.3.0) [2] can be safely ignored.

Bug#886254: ITP: cuba -- library for multidimensional numerical integration
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Francesco Montanari * Package name: cuba Version : 4.2 Upstream Author : Thomas Hahn * URL : http://www.feynarts.de/cuba/ * License : LGPL-3+ Programming Lang: C, C++, Fortran Description : library for multidimensional numerical integration The Cuba library provides new implementations of general-purpose multidimensional integration algorithms. While several algorithms are available for reliable one-dimensional numerical integration in modest time --see, e.g., QUADPACK from the GNU Scientific Library (GSL)--, the situation is less satisfactory for multidimensional integrals. The Cuba library offers a choice of four independent routines for multidimensional integration based on very different methods (both deterministic and Monte Carlo): Vegas, Suave, Divonne, and Cuhre. These algorithms are a significant improvement over alternatives already present in Debian (e.g., see the traditional Monte Carlo method and the Vegas and Miser adaptive algorithms from the GSL). A previous version of the library, libcuba3, was already in Debian but has been removed because ancient, RC buggy and low popcon [1]. I will maintain the package as a frequent user, and will ask support from a sponsor (a first package version will be uploaded on Debian Mentors [2]).

Bug#843446: thinkfan fails to starts with hwmon temperature sources
Dear Maintainer,
The workaround I previously proposed does not really solves the
problem, because of course CPU temperature is not necessarily
related to that of hard disks.
I now reconfigure /etc/thinkfan.conf automatically each time. To do
that I added an ExecStartPre entry to thinkfan.service to load the
script here attached for completeness. It seems to work fine, but
please note that i) the script may be fine tuned to my machine, ii) I
am guessing that the thinkfan service will always start after that the
hwmon devices have been determined, ii) I have no expertise with init
scripts.
Best,
Francesco

Bug#843446: thinkfan fails to starts with hwmon temperature sources
Package: thinkfan Version: 0.9.2-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, Thinkfan sporadically fails to start as temperature sources unpredictably change after reboot. For example, the source: /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_input may change to: /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon3/temp1_input Hence, temperature sources need to be edited manually after each failure, and the thinkfan service need to be restarted. Compiling with SMART support (#747143), and using it instead of hwmon seems to solve the problem for me. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.7.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages thinkfan depends on: ii libc6 2.24-5 thinkfan recommends no packages. thinkfan suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/thinkfan.conf changed: hwmon /sys/devices/virtual/hwmon/hwmon0/temp1_input hwmon /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon2/temp3_input hwmon /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_input hwmon /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon2/temp2_input (0, 0, 55) (1, 48, 60) (2, 50, 61) (3, 52, 63) (4, 56, 65) (5, 59, 66) (7, 63, 32767) -- no debconf information
