| Summary | 0001705: Upgrade on the versions for CGAL, Open-MPI and Scotch done in 2.3.x, partially break its build | ||||
| Description | Before I forget: the ThirdParty-2.4.x repository isn't up yet, at least not publicly. By upgrading the versions for CGAL, Open-MPI and Scotch directly in 2.3.x, it will partially break the builds for people that are still using 2.3.x. Although an upgrade path can be set-up/written, based on the current 2.3.x and 2.4.x repositories, it would be helpful that 2.3.x is kept operational as a standalone, without having to forcefully upgrade to 2.4.x or download individual 3rd party packages or manually revert the commits regarding the versions. Therefore, since 2.4.x has been released, this report is for requesting that the commits related to these 3rd party version upgrades in OpenFOAM-2.3.x and ThirdParty-2.3.x be reverted. If I'm not mistaken, the following commands should safely revert these version upgrades on 2.3.x: foam git revert --no-edit 3bd206da9 git revert --no-edit a253ceb33 git revert --no-edit f51182721 git revert --no-edit b9acd12c2 foam3rdParty git revert --no-edit d7367e885a03 | ||||

Personally I would prefer to be using the more recent versions of CGAL, OpenMPI and Scotch in OpenFOAM-2.3.x but I can do that locally if everyone else would prefer to stick with older versions. If others would also like these packages to be downgraded as Bruno requests please comment here and if this is the general view I will revert the commits. |

I agree with henry in the sense that I like the updated packages, but I agree with bruno in that it broke everyone's thirdparty compilations for 2.3.x after a git pull. I think it's important to maintain a consistent set of compile instructions. The compile instructions for openfoam 2.3.x are no longer valid because it has you download the "official" released thirdparty package (2.3.1) from sourceforge and rename it to compile with the git releases. This no longer works with 2.3.x because the thirdparty 2.3.1 package doesn't contain the updated versions of CGAL etc for OpenFOAM 2.3.x. My vote is to either revert the git commits or to update the compile instructions located here... http://www.openfoam.org/archive/2.3.1/download/git.php |
