Someone has to package all this stuff. * harminv and libctl are available in Fedora * h5utils and meep are packaged for SuSE The first two should be trivial to port unless they require something else that is not in CentOS / RPMForge. The latter two are trickier, because SuSE packaging guidelines are quite different from EL. I might have time to review/commit the SPECs if someone comes up with something, but otherwise I personally have no spare time / interest in packaging and maintaining these utilities. Maybe someone else have time to have fun with this. -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.
