I've created a "scitech" FAS and COPR group for the SciTech SIG (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:SciTech_SIG). My immediate goal is to create some common repositories for updated builds of scientific software for EL7 (& 6). My thought is to have a have common repository (https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/g/scitech/common/) for updated libraries, then individual repositories for updated programs like octave, julia, etc.
I'm starting off with a suitesparse44 package that is split into individual libararies and can hopefully be installed in parallel with the system suitesparse.
Add yourself to https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/view/scitech if you want to join the effort.

I wonder what other coprs already exist in this area? I'm sure there are some, but packages aren't easy to find in a search unless they're listed in the overview. As an example, there are are some updates for EPEL6 of varying quality in https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/loveshack/livhpc/. Are there conventions to follow?
Is this limited updates, as opposed to new packages and stuff like kernel modules that can't go into the distribution? I think it would be useful to collect things in one place if they're reasonably solid. I think it would be more useful than what I've seen of http://openhpc.community (which potentially covers most of scitech, I guess).
Thanks!😀 On Jan 6, 2016 10:31 AM, "Orion Poplawski" orion@cora.nwra.com wrote:
