What do you mean by "most"?
Generating tests may be somewhat problematic, since the package is
just a wrapper around gsl, so it will be more a test of gsl than of
the wrapper. And there's a huge number of functions, and there's the
question of how to obtain reference values for the tests...
Yes, the package is just a wrapper around gsl, but a few tests at least
are needed to test that the wrapper itself works properly, don't you think?
Well yes, I guess it would be good to write up some very simple tests to
see that the wrapper templates work properly.
Concerning the dependencies, the DESCRIPTION file only mentions "octave
(>= 2.9.7)".
a) Can you really build on such an old release of Octave? Can anyone try
on 3.8.x? 3.6.x?
I just tried on 3.4.6 (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6) and it seems to build
just fine. But, I noticed that the version of gsl (1.13) is a bit too
old for the wrappers to build, since some function APIs have changed in
GSL 2.
b) Shouldn't there be a depency on the gsl library? Which version of gsl
do we need to require?
I guess it'd be safe to require GSL version 2. GSL version specific
templates sound a bit too much hassle...
