Please branch and build octave in epel10

I don't have time to work on Octave anymore, so someone else needs to pick up the slack on Fedora EPEL.

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2025-06-21 20:12:59 UTC
I've been generally maintaining octave everywhere so I'll work on it.  We're currently missing deps though:

No matching package to install: 'fltk-devel'
No matching package to install: 'glpk-devel'
No matching package to install: 'gnuplot'
No matching package to install: 'suitesparse-devel'
No matching package to install: 'sundials-devel'
No matching package to install: 'xorg-x11-drv-dummy'

Requested to build gnuplot in EPEL10 in 2424544 . That should be feasible without changes hopefully as far as I tested (mockbuild and local OBS instance).

Otherwise right now besides gnuplot only xorg-x11-drv-dummy is missing: that will never (since migration to Wayland) come to EPEL 10 I believe. That is needed only for tests, I would suggest, at least in a first phase, we could make the %check phase a toggle that is disabled for el10, what do you think? Later on when we have then a solution to run tests with wayland, we can reenable that.

I'd be glad to contribute to this (and gnuplot as I see you have right there too ;) ) if possible!

Many Thanks!
F.
