Summary: Shared library for Pythia - a simulation program for particle collisions
Pythia can be used to generate high-energy-physics events, i.e. sets
of outgoing particles produced in the interactions between two
incoming particles. The objective is to provide as accurate as
possible a representation of event properties in a wide range of
reactions, within and beyond the Standard Model, with emphasis on
those where strong interactions play a role, directly or indirectly,
and therefore multihadronic final states are produced. The physics is
then not understood well enough to give an exact description; instead
the program has to be based on a combination of analytical results and
various QCD-based models. Extensive information is provided on all
program elements: subroutines and functions, switches and parameters,
and particle and process data. This should allow the user to tailor
the generation task to the topics of interest.

This package provides the shared libraries for pythia.

Changelog

* Sun Mar 10 2024 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Update to version 8.311:
    * Too many changes to list, see https://pythia.org/history/.
  - Minor rebasing of patches to apply cleanly against update:
    * pythia-examples-link-gmp.patch
    * pythia-honour-env-cxxflags.patch
    * pythia-remove-rpaths.patch
    * reproducible.patch
  - Make doc package noarch.
* Wed Jul 26 2023 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Update to version 8.310:
    * Production of quarkonia is now available via the simple
      timelike shower, see Onia Showers for details.
    * Added a new feature that allows producing user-defined
      resonances in hadronic rescattering. Newly added particles can
      be produced as resonances if they set varWidth = on.
    * A number of changes have been made to the heavy ion machinery.
    * Included possibility to sample intermediate photon virtuality
      also for externally provided events using built-in photon flux
      for protons.
    * Included possibility to generate DIS events with a
      (anti-)neutrino beam.
    * The TopRecoilHook, formerly available separately, has now been
      integrated into the SimpleTimeShower.
    * Introduced a new use plugin system, see Plugins for details.
    * The arguments to the setSigmaPtr method are now shared
      pointers. Additionally, addSigmaPtr has been introduced with
      the previous behaviour of setSigmaPtr, and the new setSigmaPtr
      overrides all previously added pointers.
    * A similar change has been made for the setResonancePtr method
      with the addition of the addResonancePtr method.
    * The new Logger class now handles printing such as
      initialization information and diagnostic messages. For more
      information about this class, see the Logging page.
    * The new BeamSetup class has been introduced to handle the beam
      configuration, including initializing and changing beam
      identities, kinematics and parton distributions.
    * Modified interface to LHAPDF6 to allow for multi-threading.
    * Updated the Python interface to use pybind11 version 2.10.4
      which is compatible with Python 3.11.
    * Fix for the Python interface working with gcc13.
    * Fixed a bug in the Python interface which prevented main162.py
      from running correctly when passing a custom function for
      initialization.
    * Updated the Lambda_b0 lifetime to c*tau = 0.44 mm. The value
      was rounded to two significant digits since PDG and HFLAV do
      not quite agree to three digits.
    * Included several small fixes in response to running an LLVM
      static code analysis.
    * Fixed out-of-range access when calling Hist::getYMin and
      Hist::getYMax for a histogram that has not been booked.
    * Fixed BeamRemnants:unresolvedHadron option that was broken and
      had no effect since 8.307.
    * Removed use of simple-template-ids in SusyLesHouches.h to make
      compliant with C++20.
    * Fixed dipole sorting behaviour in ColourReconnection which
      resulted in an ordering that depended on the current memory
      state of the program.
    * Changed the default for Parallelism:balanceLoad to on and
      updated the documentation. This ensures each thread will
      always generate the same number of events.
    * Added the += notation for settings vectors, as well as the
      include = fileName directive, which allows for additional
      settings files to be directly read in.
    * Fixed a bug in the bookkeeping the number of hadrons in the
      string fragmentation.
  - Major rebase of pythia-remove-rpaths.patch for updated version.
* Sun Feb 27 2022 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Update to version 8.307:
    * Extensions to the hadronic cross sections and beam types used
      for hadronic rescattering and cascades in the atmosphere.
    * Improvements for hidden valley scenarios.
    * A new framework for parallelisation (in addition to the
      existing openMP option).
    * A number of other technical improvements and bug fixes (full
      list here: https://pythia.org/history/index.html).
  - Minor rebase of patches to apply cleanly, without fuzz.
* Wed Jan 05 2022 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Drop HepMC2 dependency and build without hepmc2 support; largely
    superseded by HepMC(3) and this change allows Leap 15.x builds
    to proceed without HepMC2-HepMC conflicts.
  - Add BuildRequires: fastjet-plugin-siscone-devel which is needed
    for one of the tests (test number 111).
* Sun Dec 12 2021 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Update to version 8.306:
    * Fixed the incorrect scale being set when applying the POWHEG
      veto, i.e. main31.cc. Note that the number of emissions is
      correct in 8.303, but is incorrect in 8.304 and 8.305.
    * Fixed repeated initialization causing an ever expanding
      physics pointer list in the main Pythia class.
    * Fixed issue for HepMC output from Vincia, which would
      previously issue warnings about inconsistent mother/daughter
      relationships.
    * Removed assert statements from Angantyr.
    * Shortened Pythia constructor header.
  - Rebase pythia-honour-env-cxxflags.patch and
    pythia-makefile-destdir-support.patch to apply cleanly.
  - Major rebase of pythia-remove-rpaths.patch for updated version.
  - Drop patch not required any more:
    * pythia-disable-example23-req-MixMax_h.patch: Examples can now
      be disabled by passing options to the run script.
  - Change BuildRequires to pkgconfig based ones wherever
    appropriate.
  - More examples need linking against gmp explicitly: add fixes for
    all necessary examples to patch pythia-example71-link-gmp.patch
    and rename it to pythia-examples-link-gmp.patch.
  - Build with Rivet and HepMC(3) support: add HepMC-devel,
    pkgconfig(rivet) BuildRequires.
  - Update URL and source URL in keeping with upstream.
  - Minor improvements to package summaries.
  - Run spec-cleaner for minor cleanups.
* Fri Apr 16 2021 Bernhard Wiedemann <[email protected]>
  - Fix build for Leap 15.3
* Thu Jan 07 2021 Andreas Schwab <[email protected]>
  - Compile with %optflags
* Mon Jan 04 2021 Bernhard Wiedemann <[email protected]>
  - Add reproducible.patch to drop build date (boo#1047218)
* Sun Jan 03 2021 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Update to version 8.245:
    * Significant speedup of parton distribution handling.
    * Several fixes to avoid out-of-bound evaluation of vectors in
      the merging code.
    * Several fixes to correctly handle CKKW-L merging of EWkino-
      and higgsino-processes have been included.
    * Include the functionality for MC@NLO-Delta matching with
      aMC@NLO.
    * Further bug fixes for the hard process name handling for
      weak-boson-fusion-like processes, that led to an incorrect
      counting of additional emissions.
    * Small fixes to history construction in the presence of
      multiple resonances.
    * The primordial kT for LHE files is now set by the
      BeamRemnants:primordialKThard average value, rather than the
      LHE scale, since the latter may be quite low e.g. in the
      POWHEG approach.
    * The problem of "dangling" gluons causing changing color flows
      in SimpleTimeShower for top decays is now fixed.
    * Extra check added to SimpleSpaceShower for the case where a
      small daughter PDF value can lead to an infinite loop if PDF
      variations are switched on.
    * Bug fixed in the new possibility to let particles with narrow
      widths (such as onia states) obtain a simple Breit-Wigner
      distribution, specifically for MPIs, introduced in 8.240.
    * An indexing bug, for the scattering lepton in DIS events with
      photon radiation allowed, has been fixed.
    * Added a few copy constructors to match corresponding
      assignment operators, to avoid warnings for some compilers.
    * Small fix in cross section calculation of main89.cc.
    * Fixes in configure and examples/Makefile to have ROOT examples
      work again.
    * main**.cmnd, ** = 81-84, 87-88 have been slightly modified
      such that linking to LHAPDF6 is not required by default.
    * A bug in the XML-to-HTML conversion has led to the
      indiscriminate removal of "more" from the HTML manual, notably
      in Pythia::moreDecays().
  - Add patches:
    * pythia-example71-link-gmp.patch: Fix building example 71 by
      adding -lgmp to the linker flag.
    * pythia-disable-example23-req-MixMax_h.patch: Drop a test that
      requires the non-free MixMax.h header (which we delete).
  - Use autopatch to setup source dir and apply patches
    automatically.
* Sun Mar 01 2020 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Update to version 8.244:
    * The combination of weight variations, within the context of
      uncertainty bands, has not been well documented and therefore
      prone to misunderstandings. Now the behaviour of
      Info::getGroupWeight() has been made transparent, and the
      documentation in Variations has been improved. The main121.cc
      example has been modified accordingly.
    * Restore the capability to set width and lifetime of a
      resonance separately (see change in 8.240). Now the lifetime
      is set from the width only if the allowCalc() method of the
      resonance class returns true.
    * Updated handling of Powheg files, such that files with
      multiple/variable number of real emissions can be handled. The
      default value of the POWHEG:nFinalparameter has been changed
      to -1, see the POWHEG Merging documentation.
    * Limit the amount by which transverse smearing of the
      space-time quark-antiquark string breakup vertices can give
      large shifts, which may translate into unreasonably long
      invariant times being assigned to primary hadron production
      vertices. This is regulated by the new HadronVertex:maxSmear
      parameter. Even so, large hadron production invariant times
      may still occur occasionally by imperfections in the
      reconstruction around multiple gluon corners, so
      HadronVertex:maxTau gives the possibility to reject the
      hadrons of such a parton system and try again. Also some other
      related changes.
    * Fixes for consistent storage of production vertices in units
      of mm. Thanks to Christopher Plumberg.
    * Number of weights in info reset to 1 for each new init call.
  - Drop manual fixes in specfile that are no longer needed:
    * No unusual hidden files to delete.
    * Buildroot doesn't get copied into config files.
    * No more spurious exec permissions in plain files.
* Wed Aug 21 2019 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Update to version 8.243:
    + See
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/pythia82html/UpdateHistory.html
  - Rebase existing patches to apply cleanly.
* Fri May 03 2019 Atri Bhattacharya <[email protected]>
  - Update to version 8.240:
    + See
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/pythia82html/UpdateHistory.html
  - Rebase existing patches to apply cleanly.
  - Disable boost and drop boost BuildRequires as it is no longer
    needed when compiling against LHAPDF >= 6.2.
  - Remove unnecessary hidden files not cleaned up by build.
  - Cleanups using spec-cleaner.
* Mon Apr 30 2018 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.235:
    + See
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/pythia82html/UpdateHistory.html
  - Rebase pythia-remove-rpaths.patch
  - Drop bundled header file MixMax.h which is not used by pythia
    directly and violates GPL copyright.
  - Update License to GPL-2.0-or-later in keeping with upstream
    change.
  - Use %%license to install COPYING file instead of %%doc.
  - Remove no-longer needed post-install mosifications:
    + The correct permission for pythia8-config binary is set by
      install script; stop setting it manually
    + Rpaths are already removed from the shared libraries; don't
      execute chrpath to do this. Also drop BuildRequires: chrpath.
    + Don't remove non-existent backup file.
* Mon Oct 09 2017 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.230:
    + Long list of changes, see
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/Pythia.html.
  - Drop python-dont-force-std-cxx98.patch, incorporated into
    upstream sources.
  - Rebase existing patches.
* Thu Aug 31 2017 [email protected]
  - Build with HepMC2-devel < 3, since pythia tests fail when built
    against HepMC-devel >= 3.
* Mon Jul 31 2017 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.226:
    + See list of changes at:
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/pythia82html/UpdateHistory.html
  - Rebase patches for update.
  - Add python-dont-force-std-cxx98.patch to prevent usage of
    - -std=c++98 and instead inherit default compiler flags; using
    c++98 causes conflicts with dependencies such as fastjet which
    are built using default compiler std, leading to build failures
    for openSUSE > 1320 (where fastjet is compiled with --std=c+=14
    support). Tests in the check section show that this does not
    have any untoward repercussions.
* Sun Feb 05 2017 [email protected]
  - Use individual libboost-*-devel packages instead of boost-devel
    (only for suse_version > 1325).
* Thu Feb 02 2017 [email protected]
  - Fix build with rpm-4.13 that creates no .orig file
* Wed Jan 25 2017 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.223:
    + See list of changes at:
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/Pythia.html
      or locally at
      /usr/share/doc/packages/pythia/htmldoc/UpdateHistory.html.
  - Pass "-std=c++14" to CXXFLAGS as it is required for building
    with fastjet support.
  - Move installation of shell env definitions to %install section;
    this avoids an rpmlint warning and is a better place to do the
    installation rather than the %build section.
* Sun Jan 01 2017 [email protected]
  - Trim descriptions; only have the full one on the most important
    package. RPM group corrections.
* Wed Sep 07 2016 [email protected]
  - Modify pythia-remove-rpaths.patch to make disabling rpaths
    optional, specified by passing the "--disable-rpath" option to
    configure. Pass said option at the %build stage to prevent
    rpath usage in build shared libraries.
* Fri Sep 02 2016 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.219:
    + See list of changes at:
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/Pythia.html
      or locally at
      /usr/share/doc/packages/pythia/htmldoc/UpdateHistory.html.
  - Rebase patches so that they apply cleanly against updated
    version.
  - Add pythia-remove-rpaths.patch to remove rpath usage when
    building shared libraries.
* Mon Feb 01 2016 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.215:
    + See list of changes at:
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/Pythia.html
      or locally at
      /usr/share/doc/packages/pythia/htmldoc/UpdateHistory.html.
  - Rebase patches so that they apply cleanly against updated
    version.
* Wed Sep 23 2015 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.212:
    + See list of changes at:
      http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/Pythia.html
* Fri Sep 04 2015 [email protected]
  - Update pythia-honour-env-cxxflags.patch to really fix the
    issue (mentioned in previous entry) for all cases.
* Wed Sep 02 2015 [email protected]
  - Update pythia-honour-env-cxxflags.patch to fix a minor issue
    with the pythia8-config script when system CXXFLAGS are passed
    during compilation.
* Fri Aug 14 2015 [email protected]
  - Fix the location pointed to by PYTHIA8DATA env variable saved in
    /etc/profile.d/pythia.*; remove %{appname} macro as nothing uses
    it any more.
  - Use %configure instead of ./configure (remove duplicate
    specification of "--prefix=PATH").
  - Add pythia-honour-env-cxxflags.patch to allow compilation with
    CXXFLAGS set by env appended to default compilation flags; this
    allows the build to honour RPM_OPT_FLAGS.
  - Fix some unusual characters in the descriptions.
* Fri Aug 14 2015 [email protected]
  - Verify installation by running select bundled tests in a %check
    section.
* Fri Aug 14 2015 [email protected]
  - Change postinstall scripts to run ldconfig directly
* Fri Aug 14 2015 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.210:
    + Bug fix in CKKW-L merging for LHE files, such that the
      factorization and renormalization scales are set by the SCALUP
      value if the muf2 and mur2 LHEF3 attributes have not been set,
      and the user has not set any explicit values; this change
      restores the PYTHIA 8.1 behaviour.
    + Various technical improvements in the machinery for hard
      diffraction.
    + Correct quark flavour selection when a string spanned directly
      between two junctions is split up.
    + Check that SK-I and SK-II colour reconnection machineries only
      are called for event topologies they are set up to handle.
    + Bug fixes in partial widths of the W' boson. Results are
      correct when the W' is a simply rescaled copy of the W, but
      not for more general couplings. Thanks to Mihail Chizhov.
    + Minor fix in default location of PDF data files in the
      constructors. No practical consequence since correct
      non-default values are used.
    + Tiny fix in the configure script, so that CXX options
      containing an equal sign are parsed correctly.
  - Changes from version 8.202 through 8.209:
    + See /usr/share/doc/packages/pythia/htmldoc/UpdateHistory.html.
  - Add pythia-makefile-destdir-support.patch to enable DESTDIR
    support in the Makefile; makes configure stage buildroot-free
    and prevents an ugly BUILDROOT trace in the shlib.
  - Enable additional bindings now that all necessary deps are in
    Factory; new subpackage: libpythia8lhapdf6.
  - Add BuildRequires: chrpath; required to cleanup rpath in
    libpythia8lhapdf6.so.
* Fri Oct 17 2014 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.201:
    + Undocumented changes
  - Changes from version 8.200:
    + Long list of changes, see announcement here:
      https://www.hepforge.org/lists-archive/pythia8-announce/2014/000009.html
  - Packaging changes:
    + Rename pythia-libs to libpythia8 to satisfy rpmlint (although
      the package only includes one unversioned shlib)
    + Documentation files moved from toplevel dir in source to
      "share" subdir, adapt specfile accordingly
    + pythia8-config.in is now replaced by the script pythia8-config
      and does not require any tweaking in specfile to get right
      paths
    + configure options changed, allowing to automatically install
      to libdir where it needed to be manually copied to /usr/lib64
      for the x86_64 arch
    + Package new headers directory: %{_includedir}/Pythia8Plugins/
    + Package new pdf documentation: %{_docdir}/%{name}/pdfdoc/.
* Thu Sep 04 2014 [email protected]
  - Update to version 8.186:
    + New user hook to help experimentation with colour
      reconnection, in particular in relation to resonance decays
    + New set of parameters StringFlav:probQQ1toQQ0join, used to
      pick diquark spin when two already produced quarks are to be
      joined into a diquark
    + Possibility to map the bookkeeping of exotic unresolved
      incoming beams in Les Houches event files onto neutrino beams,
      see LesHouches:idRenameBeams; primarily intended for dark
      matter annihilation
    + A correction to the graviton (G^*) + parton hard processes
      (5003-5005) to account for off-shell G^* production; the
      previous formula assumed the graviton was on-shell and
      could greatly overestimate the low-mass tail of the G^*.
    + Bug fixes in examples/JetMatching.h, for uninitialized
      boolean, and number of partons to match for heavy flavour
      handling. The former bug was introduced with the new
      matching schemes in version 8.185 and affected matching to
      ALPGEN, since no events were rejected
    + Differentiate the reading of ALPGEN masses, so that vanishing
      c or b masses in ALPGEN are not unwittingly used where
      inappropriate; also protect the c and b masses from being set
      too low in TimeShower and SpaceShower, so that flavour
      thresholds are not messed up
    + Reduce number of maximum violation warnings in SpaceShower by
      leaving some headroom for branching weights
    + Bug fix that hasVetoed in Pythia.cc was not reset correctly in
      some specific cases
    + Bug fix in PartonLevel.cc where a reference could become
      invalid
    + Improvements and bug fixes in junction handling
    + Bug fix to not reuse colour indices in double diffraction
    + Bug fix in the calculation of the average mass threshold of
      open decay channels of a resonance; reduced
      ResonanceWidths::MASSMIN parameter value.
    + Correct typo in left-right symmetry documentation
    + Other minor fixes.
