Hi Peter.
as nobody replied, ill try to sum up.
on alioth.debian.org there is a gnucap source repository reflecting the
release history and debian packaging, theres nothing happening since the
2009 release.
on github there are gnucap repos
gserdyuk/
- gnucap-main
no idea what this is. it appears to be some weird packaging
attempt, throwing in some tarballs into one subdirectory. and some
readme files.
- gnucap-a
same, but with backend hacks needed for ...
- gnucap-plugins
several attempts to gnucap extensions, probably staged for later
integration into upstream (?)
- gnucap-icarus
that old hack trying to tie icarus and gnucap together
- gnucap-mot-adms
an attempt to build (the 5?!) verilog models using admsxml and
spice-wrapper.
henjo/
- gnucap
looks much like upstream gnucap, but builds shared libraray (also
contains debian package drafts) and contains backend changes needed for
- gnucap-python
gnucap as a python library. a funny hack making gnucap accessible
from python. would need a lot of work to do this right (output
plugins?)
sksavant/
- gnucap
this is a gnucap repo containing a branch dedicated to the gsoc
project (lang_geda). i think its obsolete.
on tool there are some gnucap related repos
- gnucap
here i tried to find a common denominator for gnucapplus, gnucap
upstream and my own branch/fork ("gnucap-uf"). it mostly contains the
patches discussed on gnucap-devel, some enhancements (spectre parser
improvements, parameter evaluation fixes, node allocation changes,
unit tests),
lots of bugs (probably). there are unmerged branches containing
things like sensitivity analysis and experiments.
gnucap-uf has a (n autotools based) build system supporting plugins like
- gnucap-bsim, gnucap-adms, gnucap-geda, gnucap-bm ...
plugins and extensions that work or are meant to work with any
gnucap installation. partly work with upstream version (built manually).
concerning gnucap, i guess just the bugfixes posted by Al are
'official'. you also may call the plugins (minus bsim, which i just took
and converted into an example package) official, as they are not intended
to be merged into gnucap. i doubt this is enough for a real test drive
-- you're invited to hunt bugs though :D
