packages for netcdf are outdated in debian testing (stretch)

2015-06-01 Thread Thomas Krueger
Dear Debian GIS Project pkg-grass-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org,
I try to download weather data from the noaa using ncks (NCO netcdf
operators).
NCO netcdf operators depends on netcdf.
The problem:
The debian packages for netcdf is very outdated (4.1.3-7.2 from
2011-06-17), actual is 4.3.3.1 from 2015-02-25.
The outdated version generates a Segmentation fault very often when working
with bigger files.
The problem is known and solved in the actual version.

Is it possible for you to upgrade the netcdf packages for debian testing to
a newer version, preferably the actual version 4.3.3.1?

Best regards,

Thomas Krueger

Have a look in the NEW queue:

https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/netcdf_1:4.3.3.1+ds-1~exp1.html
https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/netcdf-cxx_4.2.1-1~exp1.html
https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/netcdf-fortran_4.4.2-1~exp1.html
https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/netcdf4-python_1.1.7-1.html

Once the FTP masters get around to reviewing these packages, and
accepting them into the archive we can start the process to get them
into the next stable release.

Help with the netCDF packages is very much appreciated. I don't use
these packages myself and only contribute to the packaging because of
their importance in the wider GIS ecosystem. Getting more netCDF users
involved in the packaging should help keep it from lagging behind recent
upstream releases.

Kind Regards,

Bas
