Re: New Yade version, beginning of January 2021

 

Hi Anton,

Do you think that you could also prepare yade-long-double or
yade-float128, maybe even yade-mpfr150 packages?

Better if all of them used ENABLE_MPFR, to avoid slow boost::cpp_bin_float.

It would work great to protect (via dpkg tests caused by changes in
other packages) our achievement of having working high precision in
yade. We don't want this functionality to break at some later time.

best regards
Janek
