Hello,

While trying to build another software, I needed to use dftd4-3.7.0-foss-2023a.eb, which provides a Python package when compiled using Meson. This file, however, use CMake, thus the python package is not build (... And it is difficult to have correctly with pip install dftd4, so this is why Meson is better here). Thus, starting from DFT-D4-3.6.0-intel-2022a.eb (a previous version?), I have updated it to use Meson. I guess that DFT-D4 was the first attempt, now renamed dftd4.

Now, if I would like to upload it here, what should i do?

  1. Update dftd4-3.7.0-foss-2023a.eb (it should normally be ok to switch from CMake to Meson, but who knows?)
  2. Create another file in the same folder, but with what name?
  3. Create a file in d/DFT-D4 ... Though this naming does not seems to be in use?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts on this :)
