Hi !
[ITP] A new package proposal: mpfi
* libmpfi-devel-1.5.3-1
* libmpfi-doc-1.5.3-1
* libmpfi0-1.5.3-1
* mpfi-1.5.3-1-src
* mpfi-debuginfo-1.5.3-1
====
mpfi 1.5.3
Summary: MPFI: Multiple Precision Floating-Point Interval Library
Description:
A library for interval arithmetic,
which is built upon the MPFR multiple precision floating-point
arithmetic library.
License: LGPL2.1
Category: Math Libs
Homepage: https://gitlab.inria.fr/mpfi/mpfi/
News: https://gitlab.inria.fr/mpfi/mpfi/-/blob/1.5.3/mpfi/NEWS
====
Corresponding Linux/Unix packages are searched:
https://repology.org/project/mpfi/versions
Current cygport file is in a git repository:
https://github.com/cygwin-lem/mpfi-cygport/tree/mpfi-1.5.3-1
Current package files are placed at
https://cygwin-lem.github.io/mpfi-cygport/
or in a git branch
https://github.com/cygwin-lem/mpfi-cygport/tree/mpfi-1.5.3-1_gh-pages
====
Although mpfi-1.5.4 is released, it seems to be left incomplete and
unable to pass its testsuite.
So, I guess, mpfi-1.5.3 is better than 1.5.4.
Regards,

By the way, I wonder if the maintainer of mpfr and gmp. to which mpfi is
closely linked, would take a maintainership of mpfi, also.
What would you think of it, Achim?

What is this library needed for? I don't think using interval code is
used much these days already and needs for multiprecision interval
computations are even more rare. The only two packages I know of that
(optionally, I think) use this library are not available on Cygwin anyway.

I haven't looked at the sources, but if it really needs that cpdirs you
have in your cygport file then I'd rather not deal with it until they
fix their stuff to build cleanly out-of-tree. Although the YACP mpfi
package definition seems to indicate that this is maybe not necessary.

Achim.
(on the road :-)
