Bug#271166: ITP: fityk -- general-purpose nonlinear curve fitting and data analysis
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: fityk Version : 0.4.2 Upstream Author : Marcin Wojdyr [EMAIL PROTECTED] * URL : http://www.unipress.waw.pl/soft/crystallography/fityk/ * License : GPL Description : general-purpose nonlinear curve fitting and data analysis Fityk is a flexible and portable program for nonlinear fitting of analytical functions (especially peak-shaped) to data (usually experimental data). In other words, for nonlinear peak separation and analysis. It was developed for analyzing diffraction patterns, but can be also used in other fields, since concepts and operations specific for crystallography are separated from the rest of the program. Fityk offers various nonlinear fitting methods, subtracting background, calibrating data, easy placement of peaks and changing peak parameters, automation of common tasks with scripts, and much more. The main advantage of the program is flexibility - parameters of peaks can be arbitrarily bound to each other, eg. the width of a peak can be an independent variable, can be the same as the width of another peak or can be given by a complicated - common to all peaks - formula. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.7-1-686-smp Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C

The program as it stands has a GUI (using wxwindows) and a command line interface which uses gnuplot for graphical output. I have not tried to see what happens if the command line interface is used without installation of gnuplot. At this point I am intending to provide both the GUI and the command line programs in the same package and have a Recommends for gnuplot (probably should be a Depends) and a depends on wxwindows and X.

Question: how few dependencies do you think you can package it with? Can you package a useful core of it without X? Without Perl? Without other complex or extensive dependencies? -- Carlo U.
