Description

SUNDIALS (SUite of Nonlinear and DIfferential/ALgebraic equation Solvers) is a series of solvers released by Lawrence Livermore National Labs. Details are available here: http://computation.llnl.gov/casc/sundials/main.html

I downloaded the suite of five solvers and ran ./configure F77=/opt/local/bin/g95

make and they seemed to build just fine. But, I am not sure how to create a port file because the download of sundials-2.5.0.tar.gz required entering an email address and name. So, I believe it would be necessary to host a mirror on macports. The code is released under a BSD license.

Check how geoexpress-sdk does it if you really want to do it this way. Although I'm not too sure we should encourage too many more packages that require manually downloading stuff though...

It looks like this code is opensource, and released under BSD. The agreement allows redistribution of the source code. So, I would think that it is possible to put a mirror on macports. But, for now, I will see about building a port file, as you suggested.

There is no problem downloading the file in a Portfile directly as tarball. #35342 also already contains a Portfile, which apparently has some problems to resolve.

I’m going to close this as a duplicate. Adam, if you could use #35342 to communicate further progress on development of the port, that would be great.
