* Package name: octave-mplapack Version: 0.5.1 Upstream Contact: Maho NAKATA <[email protected]> * URL: https://github.com/nakatamaho/octave-mplapack * License: BSD-2-Clause Programming Lang: C++, Octave Description: Arbitrary-precision linear algebra using MPLAPACK for Octave This package provides a GNU Octave interface to MPLAPACK for real arbitrary-precision numerical linear algebra using its MPFR backend. The upstream Octave package is named mplapack-interop. It allows Octave users to perform numerical linear algebra computations requiring higher precision than conventional double-precision arithmetic. It depends on the MPLAPACK MPFR libraries, which I am also packaging for Debian, together with their gmpfrxx-mkii dependency. I intend to maintain this package within the Debian Octave Group. Rafael Laboissiere has reviewed the packaging and contributed improvements. I will need a sponsor for uploading the package to Debian.
