- Update to version 6.1.6:
+ Add canonical PDF.orderQCD property to Python PDF, to replace
PDF.qcdOrder.
+ Add PDF::quarkMass and PDF::quarkThreshold methods to C++ and
Python.
+ Fix quark integer ID mapping to Down/Up metadata keys in
AlphaS factory routine.
+ Add a cstr_to_fstr function to LHAGlue.cc, for improved C++ to
Fortran string conversion (handling length limits, padding
rather than zero-termination, etc.)
+ Add PDF::print() protection against being unable to read the
PDF set index file, so there isn't a crash for the trivial
reason of on-screen printout formatting when the data path is
restricted with trailing ::.
+ Fixes to the lhapdf script. Thanks again to Dmitry Kalinkin
for a patch.
+ Add missing getlam4 and getlam5 functions to Fortran
interface. Thanks to Dmitry Kalinkin for the patch.
+ Update Cython and Python interfaces to support Python3 syntax.
Thanks to Vitaly Yermolchyk for the patches!
+ Update to even newer boost.m4
+ Don't append the install prefix to path searches if
$LHAPDF_DATA_PATH ends with a double-colon, ::.
+ De-inline the availablePDFSets() function, and veto duplicate
set names.
+ Determine number of parameter variation members by counting
number of "+" signs in ErrorType, e.g. "replicas+as+mc+mb+mt".
+ Added a new checkPdfType() member function to PDFSet class.
+ Added support for combined PDF+alphaS sets via new ErrorType
values, i.e. "replicas+as", "hessian+as" and "symmhessian+as".
+ Updating AUTHORS notice to final EPJC paper reference, and
adding a final citation reminder message via the Config
destructor.
+ src/Factories.cc: Adding a set of expandPDFsStr(),
decodePDFStr and decodePDFsStr functions to be used for
handling more general PDF strings of the sort that will be
used in the CompositePDF factory system.
+ Adding a default constructor and knotarrays() accessor to
GridPDF, as requested by Nathan Hartland.
+ Remove abs(...) twice in function
PDFSet::randomValueFromHessian to correct a mistake in Eq.
(6.5) of arXiv:1205.4024v2. The correction is necessary to
ensure that correlations are preserved when converting a
Hessian PDF set to a Monte Carlo PDF set.
- Drop LHAPDF-boost-configure-for-GCC5.patch, incorporated
upstream.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jun 25 04:56:40 UTC 2015 - badshah400@gmail.com
- Add LHAPDF-boost-configure-for-GCC5.patch to fix autoconf
boost macros lookup with GCC5; patch taken from boost.m4
upstream [https://github.com/tsuna/boost.m4].
-------------------------------------------------------------------

- Update to version 6.1.5:
+ Better error handling in PDF index lookup, including clearer
reporting of set-unmatched PDF IDs and member numbers which
are out of range for a valid set.
+ Restoring original active set member in LHAGlue metadata get*
functions which were previously switching focus as a result of
calling loadMember() to get numerical grid data.
+ Making LHAGlue Fortran interface switch the current set slot
more coherently (has_photon is the exception).
+ Attempt to use Threshold* metadata keys for Fortran
getthresholdm_ and old C++ wrapper getThreshold. Not yet fully
supported in the rest of the system but we may as well
pre-empt it while editing LHAGlue.cc.
+ Add missing getdescm_ and getdesc_ Fortran functions.
+ Add missing Fortran getdatapath function, cf. LHAPDF5 but with
colon separators between multiple paths if appropriate.
+ Add Fortran lhapdf_getpdfsetlist function, returning the list
of available PDF sets as a space-separated string. Note the
lhapdf_ prefix -- this is the intended 'namespace' form for a
new Fortran interface at some point.
+ Remove obsolete config flags from lhapdf.conf
+ examples/compatibility.cc: Simplify compatibility macro
checking.
+ Add parsing and use of the internal PID data line in
GridPDF.cc, in preference to the PDF::flavors() method. This
fixes a bug, since flavors() was sorting the list, meaning
that data files without monotonically sorted PID columns would
wrongly assign PDFs to PIDs.
+ Added new ContinuationExtrapolator to provide same
extrapolation as in the MSTW standalone code (and LHAPDF5 when
using MSTW sets).
+ Better code organisation and protection against out-of-bounds
array accesses in log-bicubic interpolator.
+ Fallback to bilinear interpolator if using bicubic
interpolator with only 2 or 3 Q2 knots in a subgrid.
+ Improve LHAGlue info messages to not specify that particular
generators are being used.
- LHAPDF-devel should require boost-devel.

- Update to version 6.1.4:
- Adding multiset variants of the 5 getmin/max LHAGlue
functions
- Adding the 'unofficial' getminmax Fortran function to
LHAGlue.cc
- Treat PID 0 as an alias for 21 in PDF::hasFlavor as well as
the PDF::xf* functions
- Clarify in lhapdf script help that 'list' by default shows all
available sets, not those installed on the user's system
- Update CONFIGFLAGS docs to fix some errors w.r.t. actual flag
usage
- Treat a DataVersion of 0 as unvalidated: valid numbers now
start at 1
- Remove the LHAPDF ID from the warning printout about
unvalidated PDFs, since in that case there will usually be no
standard ID number and it just gets unhelpfully reported as -1
- Detect and report improperly terminated grid files (ones
missing a --- final line)
- Replace asserts with exceptions and improve subgrid error
reporting in GridPDF
- Report the value of Q2 that causes a subgrid-finding failure
- Improve testgrid to use PDFNAME/MEMNUM arg syntax
- Forbid compilation if the demon combination of Boost < 1.47
and GCC >= 4.6, with a serious bug in BOOST_FOREACH, is found:
http://code-muse.com/2013/08/06/boostforeach-and-compiler-bugs
- Improved AlphaS ODE solver performance.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Jun 21 21:51:34 UTC 2014 - badshah400@gmail.com
- Update to version 6.1.3:
+ tests/Makefile.am: Add appropriate programs to "make
installcheck"
+ wrappers/python/Makefile.am: 'make distcheck' and
out-of-source builds should work now
+ Add CVMFS and AFS downloading (by preference) to the lhapdf
script, as well as user-configurable download sources and
tarball removal
+ Fix bug in PDF::qcdOrder method, and deprecate that method in
favour of orderQCD (to match AlphaS and the flag name).
+ Further improvements to error messages when trying to load an
invalid PDF
+ Tweak output of testalphas.cc
+ Adding first make check targets (requires CT10nlo to be
installed)
+ Flavour thresholds in alpha_s solvers, and threshold subgrids
from ODE solver (by Karl Nordstrom)
+ Add accessors to a PDF's AlphaS object and to an AlphaS' QCD
order
+ Add mapping of reweighting functions into Python
+ Fix compiler warnings re. unused variables in LHAGlue.h and
AlphaS.h headers
+ Fix attempted use of non-existent std::vector::find method
+ Change source name of analyticpdf example
+ Adding a mini-constructor to PDF to make sure that _forcePos
is set to a sane default value.

- Update to version 6.1.2:
+ Fix HWLHAPDF behaviour in pdfset
- Changes from version 6.1.1:
+ Modify printout in PDFLIB backwards compatibility routine to
avoid confusion for some HERWIG use cases
+ Adding warnings about mismatching alpha_s in reweighting, with
a default tolerance of 5%
+ Add LHAPDF/Reweighting.h with a few handy functions for doing
'naive' PDF reweighting
+ Replace all internal uses of "foreach" with explicit
BOOST_FOREACH until C++11
+ Remigrate all NNPDF sets to remove duplicate Qmax points
+ Adding initLHAPDF() and a few other do-nothing compatibility
functions.

/usr/share/doc/packages/ChangeLog for a full list
+ Now installs a pkgconfig file (introduces BuildRequires on
pkg-config)
+ Requires boost >= 1.53.0 (not available on <= 12.3).
- Unnecessary rpaths and linker flags have been properly removed
from lhapdf-config by upstream, remove the temporary workaround
which was put in the spec file.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 29 23:08:48 UTC 2014 - badshah400@gmail.com
