Involved Projects and Packages
Applications required by researchers at University of British Columbia Okanagan.
bootp/DHCP server and test programs
This is a server for the bootp protocol; which allows network
administrators to setup networking information for clients via an
/etc/bootptab on a server so that the clients can automatically get
their networking information. While this server includes rudimentary
DHCP support as well, we suggest using the dhcpd package if you need
DHCP support, as it is much more complete.
Cairo is a vector graphics library with cross-device output support.
Currently supported output targets include the X Window System,
in-memory image buffers, and PostScript. Cairo is designed to produce
identical output on all output media while taking advantage of display
hardware acceleration when available.
This package is based on the package 'clusterssh' from project 'home:netmax'.
ChainSSH is a shell script to simplify ssh logins via multiple sshgateways/firewallgateaways.
GNU Fortran 77 Compiler
This is a Fortran 77-only compiler based on GCC 3.3.5. It can be used
for source not yet compilable by the gcc-fortran package that contains
the new gfortran compiler.
This package is based on the package 'emacs-ess' from project 'home:dsteuer'.
A package for a tight integration of the R programming language for statistics into emacs.
This package is based on the package 'fdupes' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
FDUPES is a program for identifying or deleting duplicate files
residing within specified directories
This package is based on the package 'free-ttf-fonts' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
More than 300 free fonts in True Type format. Most of them are in the
art style and unusable as desktop fonts, but are great for any poster
or illustration.
The fonts are copyrighted under the GPL or a Freeware license, but
donations are requested by the artists. Look in
/usr/share/doc/packages/free-ttf-fonts/ for further information.
This package is based on the package 'FreeNX' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
FreeNX application and thin client server based on NX technology
NoMachine. NX is the next-generation X compression and roundtrip
suppression scheme. It can operate remote X11 sessions over 56k modem
dial-up links or anything better. This package contains a free (GPL)
implementation of the nxserver component.
This package is based on the package 'hdf5' from project 'home:dipe'.
This package is based on the package 'hdf5' from project 'science'.
HDF5 is a general purpose library and file format for storing scientific data.
HDF5 can store two primary objects: datasets and groups. A dataset is
essentially a multidimensional array of data elements, and a group is a
structure for organizing objects in an HDF5 file. Using these two basic
objects, one can create and store almost any kind of scientific data
structure, such as images, arrays of vectors, and structured and unstructured
grids. You can also mix and match them in HDF5 files according to your needs.
Required by: octave
This package is based on the package 'java-1_5_0-sun-i386' from project 'Java:jpackage-1.7'.
The Java 5 SDK is a development environment for building applications,
applets, and components using the Java programming language.
The Java 5 SDK includes tools useful for developing and testing
programs written in the Java programming language and running on the
Java platform. These tools are designed to be used from the command
line. Except for the appletviewer, these tools do not provide a
graphical user interface.
This package is based on the package 'librsync' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
librsync implements the "rsync" algorithm, which allows remote
differencing of binary files. librsync computes a delta relative to a
file's checksum, so the two files need not both be present to generate
a delta.
Required by: rdiff-backup
This package is based on the package 'littler' from project 'home:dsteuer'.
A scriptable frontend to R
Magic is a venerable VLSI layout tool.
Ngspice is a mixed-level/mixed-signal circuit simulator.
This package is based on the package 'NX' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
NX provides a proxy system for the X Window System.
This package is based on the package 'perl-X11-Protocol' from project 'home:netmax'.
This package is based on the package 'perl-X11-Protocol' from project 'home:rbos'.
Perl module for the X Window System Protocol
Required by: clusterssh
This package is based on the package 'perl-XML-XPath' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
This module aims to comply exactly to the XPath specification at
http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath and yet allow extensions to be added in the
form of functions. Modules such as XSLT and XPointer may need to do
this as they support functionality beyond XPath.
PHP5 Core Files
This package contains the PHP5 core files, including PHP binary (CLI)
and PHP configuration (php.ini). This package must be installed in
order to use PHP. Additionally, extension modules and server modules
(e.g. for Apache) may be installed.
Additional documentation is available in package php-doc.

This package is based on the package 'privoxy' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
The Internet Junkbuster - HTTP Proxy Server: A non-caching HTTP proxy
server that runs between a web browser and a web server and filters
contents as described in the configuration files.
Pure-FTPd is a fast, production-quality, and standard-conforming FTP
server, based-on Troll-FTPd. Unlike other popular FTP servers, it has
no known security flaws, is trivial to set up, and is especially
designed for modern Linux kernels (setfsuid and sendfile capabilities)
. Features include: PAM support, IPv6, chroot()ed home directories,
virtual domains, built-in LS, anti-warez system, bandwidth throttling,
FXP, bounded ports for passive downloads, upload and download ratios,
Apache log files, and more.
This package is based on the package 'R-base' from project 'home:dsteuer'.
Integration of R into the OpenSuSE framework
This package is based on the package 'rdiff-backup' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another, possibly over a
network. The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory,
but extra reverse diffs are stored in a special subdirectory of that
target directory, so you can still recover files lost some time ago.
The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental
backup. rdiff-backup also preserves subdirectories, hard links, dev
files, permissions, uid/gid ownership, and modification times. Also,
rdiff-backup can operate in a bandwidth efficient manner over a pipe,
like rsync. Thus you can use rdiff-backup and ssh to securely back a
hard drive up to a remote location, and only the differences will be
transmitted. Finally, rdiff-backup is easy to use and settings have
sensical defaults.
This package is based on the package 'rkward' from project 'home:dsteuer'.
rkward provides a nice KDE GUI for R
