- Update to version 6.1:
* Identification: simulated moments were triggered instead of
theoretical ones
* Variance decompositions would crash with measurement errors
when zero variance shocks were present
* The handling of Lagrange multipliers in the display of
problems with the Jacobian was wrong
* The option auxname was missing in the documentation of the
pac_model command
* PAC equation estimation/simulation was crashing in the case of
composite target
* The PAC equation estimation would crash if the PAC target was
a transformed variable
* The perfect_foresight_with_expectation_errors_solver command
could return incorrect results when used in conjunction with
homotopy_linearization_fallback or
homotopy_marginal_linearization_fallback options
* For scalar values, the description of the horizon option of
the var_expectation_model command was incorrect
* The steady state computation with the bytecode option in a
Ramsey model was broken
* OccBin: the piecewise Kalman filter would crash in case of a
periodic solution
* The heteroskedastic_filter option of the estimation command
would cause a crash if there was only one shock
* The method_of_moments command would crash during the J-test
for just and underidentified models
* User-defined warning settings were internally overwritten with
the method_of_moments command or the piecewise Kalman filter
* The SMC sampler would crash if any of the bayesian_irf,
moments_varendo, or smoother options of the estimation command
had been specified
* The bvar_irf command would ignore the SquareRoot option and
instead employ a Cholesky decomposition
* The univariate Kalman filter erroneously treated observations
with negative prediction variances due to numerical issues as
missing values instead of discarding the parameter draw
* A new homotopy_exclude_varexo option to the
perfect_foresight_solver command has been added, to exclude
some exogenous variables from the homotopy procedure (i.e. to
keep them at their value corresponding to 100% of the shock
during all homotopy iterations).
- Add _service file to allow inclusion of submodules in source
tarball.
- Switch to meson based build.
- Add dynare-libdir.patch: Use meson detected system libdir
instead of hard-coded 'lib'.
- New dependency: slicot-devel-static.

Fri Feb 2 20:39:35 UTC 2024 - Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Update to version 6.0:
* Long list of changes, see NEWS.md file in %{_docdir}/dynare/
or online at
https://git.dynare.org/Dynare/dynare/-/blob/6.0/NEWS.md.
- Drop dynare-no-return-in-non-void-function.patch: fixed
upstream.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov 22 11:54:45 UTC 2023 - Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Update to version 5.5:
* In a stochastic context, results could be incorrect if an
endogenous with a lead ⩾ 2 or an exogenous with a lead ⩾ 1
appeared in the argument(s) of a call to a (nonlinear)
external function
* With the use_dll option of the model block, the expression
sign(x) would evaluate to ±1 instead of 0 if x=0
* If the guess value given to the steady command was such that
the residuals were all below tolerance, except some that are
NaN, then this guess value was incorrectly accepted as the
solution to the steady state problem
* The method_of_moments command with GMM was ignoring the
analytic_standard_errors option when using mode_compute=4
* Homotopy with the extended_path command at order=0 was broken
* The parallel_use_psexec command-line option was ignored
* With the bytecode option of the model block, using the
operators abs(), cbrt() and sign() would lead to a crash
* The fast command-line option was broken under MATLAB with
Windows
* Ramsey steady state computation could fail if an expectation
or diff operator was present in the model
* A crash could occur if some external function call was present
in an auxiliary variable
* The endogenous_prior option of the estimation command could
erroneously display a warning message about missing
observations
* The model_comparison command would crash if the .mod file name
had less than four characters
* The shock_decomposition command would overwrite previously
stored smoother results
* The x13 interface in dseries did not handle missing values,
particularly at the beginning of a series
* The x13 interface in dseries would occasionally crash under
Windows with segmentation violations
* OccBin: estimation would crash if a previous shocks(surprise)
simulation was conducted
* The internals command would not find the location of the
_results.mat file
* The prior optimize command would not work with mode_compute=5
- Minor improvement to conditionals specifying the right version
of gcc to use.
- Drop dynare-add-missing-include.patch: upstreamed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 12 04:31:04 UTC 2023 - Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Update to version 5.4:
* Estimation:
- The load_results_after_load_mh option would not find the
location of the results file
- The computation of prior/posterior statistics would crash if
the value of the filter step_ahead option was greater than 1
without requesting a forecast or the smoother
- NaN or complex parameters returned by steady state files
were not correctly handled
- analytical_derivation could be triggered with
endogenous_prior but would not take the endogenous prior
into account for the Jacobian and Hessian
* OccBin:
- Running the calib_smoother command with
smoother_inversion_filter would crash unless
likelihood_inversion_filter was also specified
- Running the piecewise Kalman smoother would crash if an
error was encountered during computation of the decision
rules
* PAC equation estimation through iterative OLS would crash if
the auxiliary model contained a constant.
* The variable label was incorrect for leads and lags of
exogenous variables in the display of decision rules and in
the model_info command.
* Declaring a trend_var variable while not having a
var(deflator=...) statement would cause the preprocessor to
crash.
* Macro processor: error messages following a @#define,
@#include or @#includepath directive could in some cases point
to a line number off by 1.
* Perfect foresight simulations: the debug option would not
preserve sparsity, causing out of memory errors.
- Make doc packages noarch.
