Special Update/Build Instructions¶
csdp is an autotool’ed version of CSDP, see https://projects.coin-or.org/Csdp, developed in its own repository at https://github.com/dimpase/csdp.
To update to a new version, you need to bump the version number in configure.ac and rerun autotools (autoreconf -fiv). Any changes should be merged to the upstream repo.
The build is done with NOSHORTS variable defined; this makes it compatible with packages, where NOSHORTS must be defined, e.g. https://github.com/dimpase/pycsdp; also the Sage Cython interface needs NOSHORTS defined.
Detailed steps to build the spkg are as follows. You need
- git 
- autotools and libtool (the full autohell suite, version at least 2.67) 
With these ready:
- ./spkg-src 
- copy the resulting csdp-<version>.tar.gz to SAGE_ROOT/upstream, or somewhere else appropriate

Equivalent System Packages¶
$ sudo pacman -S coin-or-csdp
$ sudo yum install csdp csdp-devel csdp-tools
See https://repology.org/project/coin-or-csdp/versions, https://repology.org/project/csdp/versions
However, these system packages will not be used for building Sage
because spkg-configure.m4 has not been written for this package;
see Issue #27330 for more information.
