Hello, Does anyone know how to install ARPACK on an Mac? I need eigs (sparse eigenvalue solver) from ARPACK. I have a Mac G5/Tiger with Xcode 2.5 (gcc-4.0). I used fink to compile octave 3.0.2.I downloaded ARPACK from octave-forge and edited ARmake.inc accordingly.I did not change UTIL/second.f -- is that really necessary? 'make lib' executes fine and libarpack_OSX.a is created - so far so good :-) Now what do I need to do to get eigs? Boaz
Boaz,There are some insructions for installing ARPACK on Mac OSX at the like below. I haven't tried to install arpack myself, but the info there should be helpful.
http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/~spk/macosx_install.htmlI believe you are already using the Fink package manager, correct? So, a nice solution would be to create a local package for arpack. Please let me know if you are willing to give that a try. If so I can help you get started. Once you are successful it can be submitted to the Fink team to be included for the benefit of other Mac users.
