This is a dummy package that builds placeholder shared libraries for the main scientific routines from the HSL Archive. HSL is not open source software; this package exists to provide a way for dependent software to be build in the absence of HSL, and for the user to provide the missing stuff later, at runtime.

If you download your own copy of the FORTRAN files from the HSL Archive, you can rebuild this package to give real HSL libraries. See the file README.txt in the source code tarball in the .src.rpm.

Packages dependendent on this package should place the following in their .spec file: "Requires: hsl-libs || hsl-dummy".
