package.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SuiteSparse_config contains configuration settings for all many of the software
packages that I develop or co-author.  Note that older versions of some of
these packages do not require SuiteSparse_config.

To compile/install SuiteSparse_config on Linux/MacOS, in this directory do:

    make
    sudo make install

To compile all of SuiteSparse for installation only in ../lib
and ../include instead:

    make local

Within each package, to install only in ../lib and ../include,
for example for UMFPACK:

    cd UMFPACK
    make local
    make install

To clean up:

    make clean

See the SuiteSparse/SuiteSparse_config/Makefile for more options.

  Package  Description
  -------  -----------
  AMD      approximate minimum degree ordering
  CAMD     constrained AMD
  COLAMD   column approximate minimum degree ordering
  CCOLAMD  constrained approximate minimum degree ordering
  UMFPACK  sparse LU factorization, with the BLAS
  CXSparse int/long/real/complex version of CSparse
  CHOLMOD  sparse Cholesky factorization, update/downdate
  KLU      sparse LU factorization, BLAS-free
  BTF      permutation to block triangular form
  LDL      concise sparse LDL'
  RBio     read/write files in Rutherford/Boeing format
  SPQR     sparse QR factorization (full name: SuiteSparseQR)
  SPEX     sparse left-looking integer-preserving LU factorization
  ParU     parallel unsymmetric-pattern multifrontal method

SuiteSparse_config is not required by these packages:

  CSparse       a Concise Sparse matrix package
  MATLAB_Tools  toolboxes for use in MATLAB
  GraphBLAS     for graph algorithms in the language of linear algebra
  LAGraph       graph algorithms based on GraphBLAS

If you edit this directory then you should do "make purge ; make" in the parent
directory to recompile all of SuiteSparse.  Otherwise, the changes will not
necessarily be applied.
