          For the others @Development

          At least for SuSE, have the following using https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/science

          • scotch, ptscotch 6.0.6 with system-openmpi and development headers, available in science repo for SuSE

          • paraview 5.6.0 updated to include development headers. Available in science repo for SuSE, merge request pending for Factory (ie, the next SuSE)

          • openfoam-selector is a simple/trivial environment sourcing for people without modules.

          • openfoam: is a meta-package for tagging the current version

          • openfoam1806: First packaging of 1806. Fedora and SuSE

          For @Mattijs - I emailed with one of the openbuild people, since they have a few packages that don't work on leap42 and which we indirectly use. He was debating whether to fix some of them, or just wait a bit. Apparently it is reaching end of life middle 2019.

          @gsg001 - if you are testing packaging and need a really fast fake build, the develop line (and 1812) have a applications/test/00-dummy/ directory that you can use.

          It contains Allwmake for compiling a libOpenFOAM-dummy.so and a corresponding Test-dummyList application that only use pure C++ with no OpenFOAM dependencies except the wmake part. These represent the smallest and fastest way to simulate having built OpenFOAM without actually building much at all.

          Simply call applications/test/00-dummy/Allwmake instead of the regular ./Allwmake

          Continuing with 1812 soon.

          We've been working with Kurt to get 1812 staged for debian/ubuntu https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/openfoam

          I think that we need to have it slotted into a different location (eg, /usr/lib/openfoam-1812/...) because we are currently missing the wmake bits, but it is a good start (I think).

          As noted by Kurt - we probably need a way to define hard-code fallback paths for locating the OpenFOAM project directory without any environment variables.
