would it be possible to reinstantiate openmeeg and ants in wheezy?
Hi Release Team,
2 packages of mine, primarily due to demanding resources for build (c++
with heavy use of templating) and testing (I do prefer to do build-time
testing and they use realistic data) always were somewhat
problematic to be built across architectures; thus they were removed
from wheezy (while in testing) whenever new FTBFS were detected. Both
are highly specialized to the field of neuroimaging. Both are old
versions (see below) but relatively popular as for a specialized
software.
ants
----
Slightly updated snapshot version than then one in squeeze
Fresh upstream version requires fresh ITK (in experimental)
popcon ~100
FTBFS atm on mips, mipsel, s390 imho due to insufficient resources
and might be tricky to make them build reliably
openmeeg
--------
The same upstream version as in squeeze -- minor additional patching (gcc 4.7) + enabled build time unittests
Fresh upstream requires fresh libmat (in experimental)
popcon ~200
FTBFS atm on mips only, and could be resolved simply through
disabling build time unittesting
I wondered, than even if I manage to overcome FTBFS on those -- would
they be allowed to come back to wheezy?
Thanks in advance
