Bug#968075: ITP: iminuit -- Robust Python minimisation library based around MINUIT2

2020-08-07 Thread Jeremy Sanders

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Jeremy Sanders 

* Package name: iminuit
  Version : 1.4.2
  Upstream Author : Piti Ongmongkolkul
* URL : https://github.com/scikit-hep/iminuit
* License : MIT
  Programming Lang: C++, Python
  Description : Robust Python minimisation library based around MINUIT2

iminuit is a Jupyter-friendly Python frontend to the MINUIT2 C++ library.
It can be used as a general robust function minimisation method, but is
most commonly used for likelihood fits of models to data, and to get model
parameter error estimates from likelihood profile analysis.

Further comments
 - Optional dependency for veusz debian package
 - One of the most robust and easy to use numerical minimisation packages
   for Python
 - Based around MINUIT2, which is a rewrite of the very widely used and
   well-tested MINUIT minimisation package, developed since the 1970s
 - Other packages which provide similar minimisers are scipy. A comparison
   of its performance is here:
   https://iminuit.readthedocs.io/en/stable/benchmark.html
 - Would prefer to maintain it within the Debian Science Team
 - I would need a sponsor to get it included

Hi Andreas

Do you have time to look at this again? Sorry to bother you.

Thanks

Jeremy

PS Veusz plots timeseries data (referring to your question on the 
mailing list).

I've updated the version control to have the latest version of Veusz, 3.2.1,
which should fix this bug:
https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/veusz

It would be great if a developer with permissions could have a look and
consider uploading it.

Hi Andreas

Thanks very much for looking at this. I forgot to update my build 
environment and something has changed in the extension module naming 
since then. I'm sorry about that. I've put in a fix to the repo, and 
checked it builds in pbuilder on an up to date sid.


Thanks again

Jeremy

Bug#714891: Still problems with 1.20.1-2

2014-03-08 Thread Jeremy Sanders
I though 1.20.1-2 (in unstable) should fix this bug, but on upgrading 
from wheezy to sid, I get:


root@lap75107:/# apt-get upgrade

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 veusz-helpers : Breaks: veusz ( 1.20.1-2) but 1.15-1 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

Any idea how to get this to cleanly upgrade?

Bug#721891: crash in tutorial

2013-09-05 Thread Jeremy Sanders
Thanks for reporting the bug. I'm upstream and I don't think this bug is 
fixed in the latest version. I have been unable to reproduce this bug, 
so if you can tell me how to reproduce it exactly, that would be very 
helpful. Others have reported this bug directly.


However, I agree that the current debian version is very old and out of 
date. Updating this would fix a number of other bugs and bring in new 
features.

Bug#714891: veusz-helpers: fails to upgrade from wheezy - trying to overwrite /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/veusz/resources

2013-07-23 Thread Jeremy Sanders
Thanks for the report. I think the error occurs because there are 
resource symlinks in both the veusz and veusz-helpers packages.


/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/veusz/resources

Unfortunately, I don't know why the resources symlink is in 
veusz-helpers (rather than just in veusz). veusz-helpers.install from 
the packaging just contains

 usr/lib/python*/*-packages/veusz/helpers/*[!_][!_].so
so there should only be shareables in that package.

If I build the latest veusz (1.18) from the PAPT repository, there is no 
resources link in veusz-helpers. I don't think any changes have been 
made to the packaging in this respect.


I can only link that there has been a bug in debhelper which has been fixed.

Bug#654604: Bug #654604

2012-04-27 Thread Jeremy Sanders
I've worked as upstream with an ARM qemu virtual machine to fix this
problem. There's no yet fixed release of the program, however, and
probably won't be for at least several weeks or so. The patches which
fix the issue are very large, as the self test comparison output needed
changing to account for floating point variations.

As the test failures aren't indicating any real problems, I think the
best solution is to just disable the failing tests until the next
upstream release. I've put in a temporary patch to do this.

So hopefully, this will be fixed if we push the current HEAD of the PAPT
repository.

Bug#654604: debugging

2012-01-11 Thread Jeremy Sanders
I'm upstream and also help do the debian packaging. I suspect it didn't
fail in the previous release because we didn't run the test suite.

The Veusz test suite basically just compares a set of generated SVG-like
output with expected output. It's possible these are floating point
rounding error problems under ARM leading to differences. They could be
a real bugs, however.

Is it possible to get access to the *.temp.selftest files in the tests
source directory after the failed build, or is there a virtual machine
somewhere I can debug under? These can be diffed against the .selftest
files under tests/comparison/

Thanks

Jeremy

I've submitted a package for Veusz (1.9) to the PAPT (Python Applications 
Packaging Team). It has been added to the PAPT svn repository.

Package: lintian

linitan reports a false positive for extra-license-file for a package

It is the source for a dialog box to bring up the license, not a license

Bug#447524: Ubuntu package

2009-01-17 Thread Jeremy Sanders
I've made an Ubuntu package which is awaiting feedback and (perhaps) 
acceptance. Maybe it could also be submitted to Debian, though I haven't 
read through the guidelines for this.
