Comments
Dear Ole,
Thanks for the suggestion and offered help. we are in the process op
running amuse under Simgularity with the hope that this makes instsllation
much easier. the number of dependancies is quite large. making it a deb
package could be an intetesting option. which we will dicuss in the team.
sincerely,
simon

Hi @teuben, |
@rieder if you at some point think that a Debian package would be a good idea, I't be happy to help you to get it ready. |
Dear Ole (and Peter),
It would be great to have AMUSE as debian package. Maybe Martijn Wilhelm is interested in helping with this.

Thank you @olebole! I do think it would be great to have.
We generally don't want to force people to choose one of OpenMPI/MPICH, since they may (and if they are using AMUSE, likely do) have a preference based on other software they're using. Using MPI is definitely preferable to not doing so in the current version of AMUSE, so offering an MPI-free package would not be necessary in my opinion.
Ok, that would be great! |
Hi,
I am a Debian Developer and involved in the Debian Astro Team. Our goal is to package the relevant software to make Debian a perfect base for astrophysical investigations. We work on the "Debian Astro Pure Blend", a subsystem designated to collect and categorize astronomy related packages.
I think that amuse would perfectly fit here, and it would benefit from an automated and wide distribution within Debian, from where it would automatically migrate to Ubuntu, Mint, and other dependent distributions.
Therefore my question is if you would have the interest to create a Debian package for amuse? If you would package it, we would be glad to help you when you run into problems. Once the package is ready, we could upload it to the Debian archive. We have a mailing list, which I would recommend to subscribe, since this is our main information exchange.
Please feel free to contact me on any questions or comments.
Best regards
Ole
