[PATCH 00/10] Add the FEniCS Project |
|
Date: |
Tue, 16 Oct 2018 10:17:08 +0100 |
Hi Guix,
This set of patches adds definitions and dependencies for the FEniCS Project.
FEniCS provides a problem-solving environment for general classes of problems
that involve differential equations. It is particularly well-suited to
problems that can be solved using the Finite Element Method.
There are two main packages;
i) fenics-dolfin: C++ library plus interface
ii) python-fenics-dolfin: Python interface
There are four FEniCS dependencies:
i) python-fenics-ffc
ii) python-fenics-fiat
iii) python-fenics-ufl
iv) python-fenics-dijitso
There are three external dependencies:
i) python-slepc4py
ii) python-petsc4py
iii) python-mpi4py
There is an extra package 'fenics' that inherits its defintion from
python-fenics-dolfin. This is to provide a sensible default for users
expecting to find a package of this name.
Best regards,
Paul.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to address the comments we made on this
patch series. I’ve applied the whole series on ‘master’; everything
lints and builds for me on x86_64-linux (there are new versions of the
PETSc and SLEPSc bindings available, BTW.)
Thank you!
Ludo’.
