Hey there,

running fink update-all, I'm asked for help in picking a package to satisfy a virtual dependency, with fftw-shlibs and fftw-mpi-shlibs presented as alternatives. Coot as well as ccp4 have in their list of dependencies fftw-shlibs | fftw-mpi-shlibs, indicating that I can go with either. But what's the difference? Why are there two packages? They're both maintained by the Sebastien Maret, are at the same version and perform the same task (DFT in one or more dimensions, of both real and complex data, for arbitrary input size).

Currently on my Leppard system, I have fftw3 and fftw3-shlibs installed (I didn't follow Kevin's recent posts on the subject), but not any fftw-related package in version 2. Coot has always compiled fine, whereas ccp4 never has.

Thanks.


Andreas
