  Description     : Spherical Harmonics Transforms library

 ecTrans is the global spherical Harmonics transforms library,
 extracted from the IFS weather model from ECMWF.
 It uses a hybrid of MPI and OpenMP parallelisation strategies.
 The package contains both single- and double precision Fortran libraries (trans_sp, trans_dp),
 as well as a C interface to the double-precision version (transi_dp)
 ECMWF is the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts.

 ecTrans is a new dependency of the ECMWF atlas-ecmwf library already
 present in Debian, as ECMWF open-source their stack.
