I'm using Dirk's CRAN wheezy backport of R 3.0 from unstable. Hi Faheem, r-cran-scales was built in Sid, where 3.0.1-3 was the latest version at that time, and therefore r-cran-scales demands it. The backport in Wheezy has a lower version number, and therefore does not satisfy the demand. One could consider adding systematically the magic tilde to the version numbers passed to ${R:Depends}, but at that point, I think that it is even better to implement a versionned R API number. A versioned R API number would be a good idea. Is this supported by R? What would be involved in implementing it? Regards, Faheem

gfortran: handling binNMU for .mod file format change
Hi, debian-devel and debian-science, since Fortran90 programs are mostly science related, Fortran90 -dev package may contain .mod files, which behave like header files for C/C++ program. However, .mod files are binary files, and compiler dependent, and what is worse, they are incompatible between every major release of gfortran(e.g. we cannot use .mod file created by gfortran4.7 with gfortran4.8, and vice versa). Recompilation is required (thus binNMU is enough). This creates a hidden dependency to Debian Fortran90 packages, and many bugs are reported every time when gfortran default version was upgraded. # For the detailed background information, please see #714730. Now that gfortran-4.8 (4.8.1-6) provides gfortran-mod-10 virtual package (Thanks to Matthias Klose) which enables us to correctly handle this hidden dependency, next we need to create a way to automatically create correct dependencies when packaging. # If we add a dependency to gfortran-mod-10 for every Fortran90 package(which contains .mod file) explicitly, we need to change the source package manually. This is a regression from the current situation since we only need binNMU when mod file format change. >From my limited understanding of debian packaging, I have to write a debhelper script (say: dh_fortran_mod) which add the correct virtual dependencies of Fortran mod file to ${misc:depends}. Is this the correct way to proceed? Of course, this does not solve the whole problem. One of the remaining problems I can think of is: 1. Fortran90 program can only be compiled with only one(i.e. default) version of gfortran. There is no standard location of .mod files (nor version dependent ones). Having discussion with not only gfortran upstream but also various commercial Fortran compiler vendors (Intel, PGI, NAG, etc.)will be necessary. Currently, most supercomputer center switch compilers by "module load" mechanism (using Tcl scripts). However, I strongly believe that we should have a mechanism for handling .mod files correctly at least in the Debian world (and hopefully do not break other compilers), Best regards, -- Ryo IGARASHI, Ph.D. rigar...@gmail.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
