Quoting Thomas Kahle <[email protected]>:
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to use the latest glpk-4.50 ( and how to
solve https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473380 )
So, the configure test fails because the symbols LPX, lpx, etc. are not
known? Have they moved to some other header? Since these are just the
basic linear program datatypes I'm slightly confused. Does anybody know
what's going on?
Hi Thomas,
I have very much explained what's going on in this bug:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473454
But to summarize: in glpk 4.49 lpx_ symbols have been removed. Not moved, they
were probably deprecated for a while.
It affects cvxopt and ppl as well - there may be more. Octave and sage are
unaffected
If you check out the git tree from ppl you can see what they have done
in May to
solve the problem on their side.
I personally think glpk 4.50 should be masked until we have some resolution on
all these.
