Comment 2 James.Gunning@csiro.au 2024-10-24 22:47:37 UTC
That's great, thanks!
Except it needs the files yacc_read.[ch]
from the main lpsolve source tree to build properly, I believe: if I copy them in in a hacky way I think it builds ok.

Comment 3 James.Gunning@csiro.au 2024-10-24 23:19:53 UTC
Confirming also it seems to run fine, as long as the built libxli_CPLEX.so is in a sane place on the path (probably /lib/lib64 ?)
Just for records, usage is usually something like
% lp_solve -rxli xli_CPLEX model.lpt

Comment 4 Petr Pisar 2024-10-25 08:42:26 UTC
It only needs yacc_read.h header file. I added that file into lpsolve-devel-5.5.2.11-7.fc42.

Comment 5 James.Gunning@csiro.au 2024-10-25 23:21:38 UTC
Thanks Petr. That should do the trick. There are other xli interfaces too in the lpsolve code, 
so others may profit from the header in the lpsolve-devel rpm if those other interfaces appear as separate rpms in the future...

This is an automatic check from review-stats script.

This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry
it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software
into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the
NEEDINFO flag.

You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version
available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase
chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you
need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group.

Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned
and will be closed.
Thank you for your patience.

Comment 7 Petr Pisar 2025-10-27 10:46:15 UTC
I'm still interested in packaging this software.
