https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D223430 Bug ID: 223430 Summary: math/dynare: update to 4.5.3 Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: fernando.apesteguia@gmail.com Created attachment 187731 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D187731&action= =3Dedit patch to the ports tree The attached patch updates math/dynare to version 4.5.3 4.5.3 is a bugfix over 4.5.2 that has the following changes (from the announcement mail: This release is compatible with MATLAB versions 7.3 (R2006b) to 9.3 (R2017b) and with GNU Octave versions 4.2. Here is a list of the problems identified in version 4.5.1 and that have be= en fixed in version 4.5.2: - Fixed bug in perfect foresight solver: + If expected shocks were declared after the terminal period, as specifi= ed by the `periods` option, Dynare was crashing. + Models declared with the `linear` option were crashing if exogenous variables were present with a lead or lag. - After ML or Bayesian estimation when the smoother option or `mh_replic= =3D0` were not specified, not all smoothed measurement errors were displayed. - Fixed error in reference manual about the `conditional_forecasts` comman= d. - Fixed smoother behaviour, provide informative error instead of crashing = when model cannot be solved. - The `nopathchange` preprocessor option was always triggered, regardless = of whether it was passed or not. - When `ramsey_policy` is used, allow state variables to be set in `histva= l` block. - `histval` erroneously accepted leads, leading to cryptic crashes. - The prior MC draws from previous runs were not deleted, potentially resulting in loading stale files. - `estim_params_` was being declared `global` more than once. - Fixed crashes happening when simulating linear models with order>1. - Make empirical moments independent of `simul_replic`, as stated in the reference manual, by outputting moments computed with the first simulated sample. - The `prior_function` required a preceding `estimation`-command to proper= ly set up the prior. - If the mode for a parameter was at exactly 0, `mode_check` was crashing. - Fixed `get_posterior_parameters`-routine which should not do more than getting parameters. As a consequence, the `shock_decomposition`-command did not correctly set the `parameter_set` for use in subsequent function calls if shocks are correlated or measurement error is present. - Fixed bug in Ramsey problem with constraints both on a policy instrument= and another variable. Note that the constraint on a variable that is not an instrument of the Ramsey problem must be written with an equation tag in= the model block. - Fixed bug in Ramsey problem with constraints on policy instrument. - Fixed crash with optimizer 5 when not used with DSGE model at order 1. - Fixed mex file used for third order approximation (was crashing on Matlab/Windows 7). - `isfile` routine was failing with MATLAB older than R2016b. This bug did not affect Octave. Q/A: - portlint -AC: OK - poudriere builds for {10.3,10.4,11.0,11.1}{i386,amd64}: OK --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
