libngspice in Homebrew

 

Hi OSX devs & packagers,

just FYI, the Homebrew maintainers have merged my PR for a
libngspice formula [1].

The formula builds ngspice as shared library, either the current
stable version (26, bottled) or the current HEAD from Sourceforge
git.

It uses the same ./configure arguments as Orson’s ngspice build
script, so it may be used as a direct replacement for OSX devs
working on Kicad.

I have also fixed the bug that the headers don’t get installed to
/usr/local/include/, which Orson had reported upstream [2].


Cheers,
Johannes
