It is not in Debian, but Matpack has an implementation for the Faddeeva
function:
w(z) = exp(-z^2)*erfc(-i*z),
where erfc is the complementary error function.
I extracted the "stand-alone" code, containing that function and adding the
plasma zeta function Z(z) = i*sqrt{pi} w(z), in which I was really interested.
I made C++ (Matpack is written in C++) and Octave versions, but I don't know
if it's ok to redistribute it, as it is basically the same code, with a few
lines commented to make faddeeva(z) independent of the rest of Matpack code.

Does extracting a single function from the code constitute a "modified
version"? What about translating an algorithm to another language?
