[Debichem-devel] Bug#904639: elpa: package the 2018.05.001.rc1 release

Source: elpa
Severity: wishlist
Control: tags -1 + help

Hello,

a new release (actually, an rc) of elpa is ready. I attempted to package it in a GIT fork [1], however,
all its tests fail, seemingly due to inability to force more than one task to be run by MPI. I have no
experience with MPI and have no idea how to fix the tests, thus I ask help of someone experienced.
Moreover, my machine is single-core.

I have silenced/removed the most of patches in my fork, as most of them seem to be integrated upstream.
From my experience in building 'espresso' package it seems that this release introduces breaking changes
in libelpa, therefore, library version has to be bumped.

Best,
Andrius
