Description Jos de Kloe 2017-06-14 08:10:49 UTC

Description of problem:

ECMWF has announced that it internally fully moved to the new ecCodes library now, and will only provide limited support for GRIB_API, e.g. tables and urgent bug fixes, but this will end in the autumn of 2018.
see: https://software.ecmwf.int/wiki/display/GRIB/Home

This seems a long time from now, but it may take some time to get ecCodes in Fedora. Are you already planning to package ecCodes anytime soon? If not, would you mind if I give it a try myself to package it?

Comment 1 Orion Poplawski 2017-06-16 22:37:57 UTC

I have an initial package:

https://www.cora.nwra.com/~orion/fedora/eccodes.spec
https://www.cora.nwra.com/~orion/fedora/eccodes-2.2.0-1.fc27.src.rpm

problem is that upstream doesn't understand sonames and refuses to do so: https://software.ecmwf.int/issues/browse/SUP-1809

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2017-06-16 22:38:24 UTC

Also, ENOTIME, so feel free to work on it.

Comment 3 Jos de Kloe 2017-06-17 08:58:21 UTC

Thanks.
They also don't understand transparancy in software development since I don't seem to have permission to view this issue.
Could you sumarise the sonames and ENOTIME problems here?

Comment 4 Jos de Kloe 2017-06-17 09:11:20 UTC

In addition the links to https://www.cora.nwra.com/ are not accessible to me.

Comment 5 Jan Kurik 2017-08-15 09:25:37 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 27 development cycle.
Changing version to '27'.
