Topic: GLPK Update

Hi Jeff,
Could you please update the GLPK package too? The version in the library dates from 2004 and is 32 bit only. It would be great to have a 64 bit version too. I do a fair bit of optimization work and normally compile as 64 bit but have to drop everything to 32bit to use the library.
Regards, Pete

Re: GLPK Update

Pete,

I'm working on updating GLPK to version 5, which is also quite old. The project's last release appears to be around 2020.  The issue is that moving to version 5 breaks the Fortran interface in a few places.  I personally manage that Fortran interface, so it needs updating as well.  That process is taking some time.

Thanks Jeff,
I realize it's still pretty old, it's mostly the 64bit support that's important to me.
