h4h5tools has conflicting dependencies hdf5 and hdf5-18

Reported by: ishikou@… Owned by: tom.duck@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: hdf5 hdf5-18 Cc: mamoll (Mark Moll)
Port: h4h5tools

Description

h4h5tools requires hdf4, hdf5, and netcdf. On the other hand, netcdf requires hdf5-18. Due to the conflict between hdf5 and hdf5-18, the install of h4h5tools was failed.

I temporary solved the issue as:

  1. try to install h4h5tools -> error
  2. deactivate hdf5
  3. install netcdf

(4. deactivate hdf5-18 and activate hdf5)

The home page for h4h5tools is broken. It should be http://www.hdfgroup.org/h4toh5/. According to that page the latest version of h4toh5 is 2.2 and is tested with hdf5-1.8.7. I suggest that the h4h5tools is updated and switched to the hdf5-18 port rather than the hdf5 port as a dependency.
