Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install sirocco on Fedora 34.

What is sirocco

This is a library for computing homotopy continuation of a given root of one dimensional sections of bivariate complex polynomials. The output is a piecewise linear approximation of the path followed by the root, with the property that there is a tubular neighborhood, with square transversal section, that contains the actual path, and there is a three times thicker tubular neighborhood guaranteed to contain no other root of the polynomial. This second property ensures that the piecewise linear approximation computed from all roots of a polynomial form a topologically correct deformation of the actual braid, since the inner tubular neighborhoods cannot intersect. sirocco 2.0.2 3.fc34 x86_64 88 k sirocco-2.0.2-3.fc34.src.rpm fedora ROot Certified COntinuator https GPLv2+ This is a library for computing homotopy continuation of a given root of one dimensional sections of bivariate complex polynomials.

We can use yum or dnf to install sirocco on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install sirocco.

Install sirocco on Fedora 34 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

Fedora 34 - x86_64                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00
Fedora 34 openh264 (From Cisco) - x86_64        1.4 kB/s | 989  B     00:00
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64                       68 kB/s | 6.5 kB     00:00
Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates                    3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB     00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates             17 kB/s | 5.9 kB     00:00
Metadata cache created.

After updating yum database, We can install sirocco using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install sirocco

Install sirocco on Fedora 34 Using yum

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

Fedora 34 - x86_64                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00
Fedora 34 openh264 (From Cisco) - x86_64        1.4 kB/s | 989  B     00:00

Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates                    3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB     00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates             17 kB/s | 5.9 kB     00:00
Metadata cache created.

After updating yum database, We can install sirocco using yum by running the following command:

sudo yum -y install sirocco

How To Uninstall sirocco on Fedora 34

To uninstall only the sirocco package we can use the following command:

sudo dnf remove sirocco
