conda-forge packaging

[loriab]

Hi @slipchenko, I wanted to let you know that I'm finally packaging libefp (and pylibefp) on conda-forge, so it'll be more broadly available than from the -c psi4 channel. conda-forge/staged-recipes#22027

• Let me know if you (or someone else) ought to be a maintainer, too.
• What's being packaged is the fairly old v1.5, since that's what I know works with Psi4. I can probably update that in future (though I think the latest sync with Q-Chem removed some functions we use).
• The c-f packaging will do the C library and several Py versions across Linux, Mac, and Windows
• The CMake in libefp (and pylibefp) is looking a little rusty. A more rational arrangement might be for me to PR all the python stuff from https://github.com/loriab/pylibefp/tree/master/pylibefp to this repo. It wouldn't change your dependencies unless someone LIBEFP_ENABLE_PYTHON=ON, at which point C++, Pybind11, Python, etc. are required. sound ok?

Please let me know if you've any questions, objections, etc.

Hi @loriab, this is terrific news! Thanks for your effort!
I would like to be a maintainer too.
It would be great to update the packaged libefp to a newer version though, as we added quite a bit of useful features recently. I would love to help with bringing the most recent libefp in sync with Psi4. Should we talk over zoom sometime next week?
Thanks again!

Great, I've added you to the recipe. Please post at conda-forge/staged-recipes#22027 that you're willing to be a maintainer.

Sure, glad to talk next week to make plans. Any time other than W or Th afternoons works for me. I'm not going to be able to actually work on updating/reconciliation until mid-March, though.

Oh, I do not know how to add myself as a maintainer there :( I guess it is not too urgent, you can show me when we talk next week.

Would Friday Feb. 24 at 10 or 11 am work for you? Thanks!

I've already added you. You need to make a comment on the PR (like this conversation) saying you're ok with being a maintainer (the reviewers want to make sure maintainers are volunteers, not conscripts :-).

Sure, anytime Friday morning works for me. lmk which time and time zone. Thanks!

Sounds good! Friday meeting at 11 am ET? The Zoom link is below. Thanks! Lyudmila Slipchenko is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. Join Zoom Meeting https://purdue-edu.zoom.us/j/3566623108 Meeting ID: 356 662 3108
