Description Colin Macdonald 2017-08-15 07:30:00 UTC
Spec URL: https://cbm.fedorapeople.org/octave-interval.spec
SRPM URL: https://cbm.fedorapeople.org/octave-interval-2.1.0-1.fc26.src.rpm
Description:
The Octave-forge Interval package for real-valued interval arithmetic
allows one to evaluate functions over subsets of their domain.  All
results are verified, because interval computations automatically keep
track of any errors.  These concepts can be used to handle
uncertainties, estimate arithmetic errors and produce reliable
results.  Also it can be applied to computer-assisted proofs,
constraint programming, and verified computing.  The implementation is
based on interval boundaries represented by binary64 numbers and is
conforming to IEEE Std 1788-2015, IEEE standard for interval
arithmetic.

Comment 1 Colin Macdonald 2017-08-15 07:47:00 UTC
Fails to build on non-x86 arches, reported upstream: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51758

So not much hurry on the this review!

Comment 2 Colin Macdonald 2017-08-16 20:42:57 UTC
Ok, patched that.  Koji successfully built all arches now.

Ready for review:

Hello,

  - The Group: tag is not required when packaging for Fedora. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Tags_and_Sections

  - Most of the package is GPLv3+ but crlibm is under LGPLv2+. This should be reflected in the License: tag and detailed
