Dear Ubuntu Developers,
Thank you very much for including FreeMat 3.6 in Karmic. As FreeMat 4.0
has been released recently with some very important features, could you
please consider adding this newer release to Ubuntu's repository?
Here are the links to FreeMat:
http://freemat.sourceforge.net/download.html
http://sourceforge.net/projects/freemat/files/?_test=var2
There can be one problem that FreeMat 4.0 requires exactly llvm 2.5,
amongst other packages, for its JIT acceleration while Karmic only
includes llvm 2.6 instead. As a work around, Jaunty's llvm 2.5 deb can
be installed on Karmic, then compiling FreeMat goes without problems. In
fact, llvm 2.5 source is already included in FreeMat 4.0 source but I
couldn't compile it.
If you need me provide deb files and add them to Ubuntu's repository,
please provide some instructions to do that properly or pointers to
where I can find the information.
Your help will be very valuable as more people can easily install it and
provide feedbacks which can significantly improve FreeMat for LTS Ubuntu
release next year.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Chuong
