Bug#679504: RFP: lazylpsolverlibs -- libraries that proxy function calls to commercial lp solvers
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Lazylpsolverlibs [1] is a set of libraries designed to make Coin-Osi
[2] support commercial solvers without recompilation. Under the hood,
dlopen calls are used on the commercial libraries.
Currently the package for Coin-Osi (coinor-libosi-dev) is useless for
people who own licenses for commercial solvers, because it does not
support these solvers. Should it be recompiled against
lazylpsolverlibs, Coin-Osi could be useful for everyone: those who own
and those who do not own licenses for commercial solvers.
The lazylpsolverlibs license is the OSI-approved Eclipse Public License.
