Description:
The Bayesian Filtering Library (BFL) provides an application independent
framework for inference in Dynamic Bayesian Networks, i.e., recursive
information processing and estimation algorithms based on Bayes' rule, such as
(Extended) Kalman Filters, Particle Filters, etc.  These algorithms can, for
example, be run on top of the Realtime Services, or be used for estimation in
Kinematics & Dynamics applications.

There are a number of bugs which are fixed by the following patches and
reported upstream:

missing libsuffix:
upstream bug report: http://bugs.orocos.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1058
patch: https://thofmann.fedorapeople.org/orocos-bfl.libsuffix.patch

missing version in soname:
upstream bug report: http://bugs.orocos.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1059
patch: https://thofmann.fedorapeople.org/orocos-bfl.soname-on-libsuffix.patch

library isn't linked against libginac:
upstream bug report: http://bugs.orocos.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1063
patch:
https://thofmann.fedorapeople.org/orocos-bfl.linkginac-on-soname-on-libsuffix.patch



There are additional bugs which cannot be fixed with a downstream patch:

FSF address is incorrect: http://bugs.orocos.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1060
shared library calls exit(): http://bugs.orocos.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1061
unit test test_pdf fails on i686: http://bugs.orocos.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1064
unit test test_model fails on ARM: http://bugs.orocos.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1062

The failing test_pdf looks like a rounding error, thus we don't run the unit
tests on i686 but we still provide an i686 package.

Due to the last bug, ARM is listed in ExcludeArch. Following the packaging
guidelines [1], I will add a tracking bug once the package has been accepted.


I'm currently in contact with upstream to discuss whether the proposed soname
is indeed wanted, or if a different naming scheme would be better.

All issues reported by rpmlint should be covered by the above patches and bug
reports.

A review would be highly appreciated!
