Description of problem: Looks like ga 5.5 is available. Also, more packages are moving away from atlas and using openblas. I would suggest doing the same. Also, this packages seems a bit unmaintained. Are you still interested in maintaining this package? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.3b-22
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 27 development cycle. Changing version to '27'.
I doubt ga is maintained. I have not received an answer for over a year now https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1357022
It is maintained they just don't have a lot of exposure outside the Scientific Computing space. They've moved their development to https://github.com/GlobalArrays/ga and have been moving forward. I've been waiting for 5.6.2 to come out as it has some fixes for nwchem.
Great, thanks. It may be worth waiting a bit with EPEL7 for CentOS 7.4, but I've been receiving mails from Rawhide about nwchem build failing due to missing libga.so.0()(64bit)(mpich-x86_64) missing, also for i386 and openmpi. Can you have a look what's the status of ga in Rawhide?
CentOS 7.4 is out, and ga-5.6.1 in Fedora 27, can you build ga for EPEL7 bug #1357022?
Or maybe I should start using the ga bundled inside of nwchem. Currently I unable to build a working executable of neither nwchem 6.6 nor 6.8 on fedora 27 bug #1514542
We need to commit whether ga will be always kept in sync with nwchem in both Fedora and EPEL, or I should start bundling the ga included in nwchem.
Nwchem offers now officially a possibility of building against a separate ga https://github.com/nwchemgit/nwchem/issues/40. I'm considering retiring nwchem from Fedora/EPEL due to lack of the ga package. https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/KUYUMGYUM73TGXBCSYLBKDPN3IHXLLOW/
