suitesparse (1:4.4.5-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * Imported Upstream version 4.4.5
  * debian/copyright: reflect upstream changes.
  * Bump SOVERSION for libcholmod, libklu and libsuitesparseconfig.

suitesparse (1:4.4.4-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * Imported Upstream version 4.4.4
  * Bump SOVERSION for libspqr and libsuitesparseconfig.
  * Fix typo in description of libccolamd. (Closes: #768365)
  * Overhaul long package descriptions. (Closes: #633042)

suitesparse (1:4.4.3-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * Imported Upstream version 4.4.3
  * debian/copyright: update, rewrite using machine-readable format 1.0.
  * Bump library SONAMEs.
  * Update patches.
    + Merge all patches related to shared libraries building in
      shared_libraries.patch.
    + Separate patch for BLAS library (use-generic-blas.patch) from the one
      disabling METIS (disable-metis.patch).
    + Give more explicit names to remaining patches, and use the .patch
      extension.
  * Ship libsuitesparseconfig in a separate package.
    This is now necessary because the library contains a global symbol, shared
    between several SuiteSparse libraries.
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.6, no changes needed.
  * Update debian/watch for new tarball location.
  * debian/control: update homepage URL.
  * Ship cs.h from both CSparse and CXSparse.
    CSparse and CXSparse both provide a header named cs.h. Previously, only the
    CXSparse version was provided. Both versions are now provided in separate
    subdirectories of /usr/include/suitesparse. A toplevel symlink pointing to
    the CXSparse version is left for backward compatibility.
  * Add missing SuiteSparse_config in long description of libsuitesparse-dev.
  * Regenerate debian/control from the clean rule (instead of using a
    dedicated target). This seems acceptable, since it's done in
    gnome-pkg-tools.

Ubuntu changes:

suitesparse (1:4.2.1-3ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - debian/control: Demote libatlas-doc from Recommends to Suggests, as it
      is not in main.

[Graham Inggs (ginggs)]

Attached is a debdiff between the Debian .dsc and the modified Ubuntu .dsc.

The debdiff been the old Ubuntu .dsc and the modified Ubuntu .dsc is around 16MB in size.

[Graham Inggs (ginggs)]

libsuitesparse-dev has the following reverse build dependencies in main:

* gegl
* libreoffice
* libreoffice-l10n
* lp-solve

and the following in universe:

* biosig4c++
* deal.ii
* dolfin
* dune-istl
* dynare
* elmerfem
* freefem++
* freemat
* glpk
* julia
* libdogleg
* mccs
* octave
* petsc
* pysparse
* python-scipy
* rheolef
* scilab
* sfepy
* sigviewer
* sofa-framework
* stimfit
* yade

[Graham Inggs (ginggs)]

No-change rebuilds of all reverse build dependencies were successful in my PPA, except for yade (which required eigen3 3.3 which FTBFS in -proposed, but I have uploaded a fix) and scilab (which FTBFS in -proposed).

[Graham Inggs (ginggs)]

After building fop 1:2.0+dfsg-4 in my PPA, I was able to build scilab as well.

Scilab requires fop >=2.0, but fop (main) build-depends on libfontbox-java (universe) and libmockito-java (universe) so is stuck on depwait in -proposed.

I'll investigate whether fop can be built without libfontbox-java and libmockito-java, and also look at preparing MIRs for them.

[Graham Inggs (ginggs)]

Fop FTBFS / MIR bug here LP: 1515361.

Seeing that it may some time to work out the MIR details of fop, would a temporary solution be to remove the versions of fop and scilab from -proposed?

[Didier Roche-Tolomelli (didrocks)]

Hey Graham!

I'm fine from removing scilab/fop which are build-dep waiting in proposed. The thing I didn't grock then is if the older versions still build s with this new version of suitesparse. Do you mind expanding that?

Thanks for working on this!

[Graham Inggs (ginggs)]

Hi didrocks

Yes, older versions of scilab build with no changes against the new suitesparse.

I have found that I can build scilab 5.5.2-2 against fop 1.1 and suitesparse 4.4.5 with only one minor change; disabling debian/patches/fop-2.0.diff. So I think we only need to remove fop from -proposed, and then I can upload scilab 5.5.2-2ubuntu1 and no-change rebuilds for everything else.

[Didier Roche-Tolomelli (didrocks)]

Agreed, removal done!

Removing packages from xenial-proposed:
 fop 1:2.0+dfsg-4 in xenial
Comment: Removed to enable stuitesparse transition, see bug #1518985
Remove [y|N]? y
1 package successfully removed.

[Didier Roche-Tolomelli (didrocks)]

And merge sponsored (adding the bug report to the changelog). Thanks!

[Graham Inggs (ginggs)]

libreoffice and libreoffice-l10n both have build-dependencies on libsuitesparse-dev, but I cannot see anything that is actually linked against any of the libraries in libsuitesparse. I don't think rebuilds are required for libreoffice and libreoffice-l10n.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

thanks, I sponsored the rebuilds
