Thanks @zware! I'll apply your patches in Debian until upstream applies them.

Quick question, @zware - do your series of patches have the same licensing conditions as the original software? Thank!

zware commented 1 year ago

I have given no special consideration to licensing, so I assume so :)

Hi Zachary and all, thanks so much for your contribution. In 2019 we created a startup building on these software packages. It was acquired in 2020 and I was away working full time in industry. I just came back and am rebuilding my research group. Hence there has been very little work on these in the past few years.

We will improve these packages, processing your pull requests, and more. This may take us a few weeks. But we will get it done and release a new version, as these packages have proven very useful (been used in many companies). Thank you for your patience, and if you have more to contribute, please do not hesitate to send it our way. Regards, AnHai Doan (UW-Madison).
