This is a note to say I have been working on visit packaging, but am unlikely to complete before December due to completing a PhD. VisIt packaging has been mostly delayed awaiting vtk6 to be properly integrated and packaged in Debian (thus not requiring a separate visit-vtk).
I have uploaded my work to date to alioth.debian.org (pkg-visit) where is can be downloaded via git.debian.org:/git/pkg-visit/pkg-visit.git regards Alastair McKinstry On 28/07/2014 14:47, Lucas Nussbaum wrote: > retitle 395573 RFP: visit -- interactive parallel visualization and graphical > analysis tool > noowner 395573 > tag 395573 - pending > thanks > > Hi, > > A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging visit.
