I see that "make check" failed only the randltl.ipynb test, but given than (1) all other Python tests passed, and (2) what the error looks like, I believe that tests/python/randltl.ipynb has been modified compared to was was in the tarball.

No idea. I'm not familiar with Visual Studio or Windows.

Spot tool - installation error
by Ioana Huștiu 22 Aug '23

22 Aug '23

Dear authors, I am a PhD student at Technical University of Iasi, Romania and I also work with professor Cristian Mahulea from University of Zaragoza, Spain. During my research I'm finding the Spot tool to be very useful. I am writing to you as I encountered an error during the installation of Spot during the "make check" step. The generated file is attached below and it is not clear to me how I can solve this problem. I tried multiple times to install the tool, even by skipping the "make check" step, but in this case another error appeared when trying to install the stable package "python3-spot" - the python version that I have (meaning 3.9.7) is not >=3 python 3.5, which is quite strange. What would you recommend me to do? Thank you, Ioana Hustiu

SPOT questions
by Yoav Ben Shimon 06 Jun '23

06 Jun '23

Hi, I ran into a couple of issues when using SPOT in a project. I'll be glad for any assistance. 1) I am calling sat_minimize from a python script using the spot python library. Is there any way to set a timeout on this function call? Or do I have to use the CLI if I want a timeout? 2) I am manipulating an automaton generated from an LTL formula, and then printing it in HOA format. Is there a way to guarantee that the initial state is the state numbered 0? If not, is there any other way to control the naming of states? Thank you, Yoav Ben Shimon

Spot Compilation on Windows

Hello, I was just curious if there were any plans to support building Spot on windows? Or maybe any plans to use CMake in the future? If not, are there any suggestions for building on windows? Thanks, Jonah

APT install of python3-spot requires python version <<3.10
by mgerber59＠gmail.com 09 May '23

09 May '23

Hi, I'm a master student at RWTH Aachen, and am using spot as part of my master thesis. Thank you very much for developing and providing this awesome tool! However, I noticed that when attempting to install python3-spot via `apt install`, it fails with: ``` The following packages have unmet dependencies: python3-spot : Depends: python3 (< 3.10) but 3.10.6-1~22.04 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. ``` Checking out the package index at https://www.lrde.epita.fr/repo/debian/stable/Packages (Cmd-F for `python3-spot_2.11.5.0-1`), I notice that the package indeed specifies `python3 >= 3.9, python3 << 3.10` as a dependency, making it so it can only be installed alongside Python 3.9. I don't know what this restriction is used for, and would greatly appreciate it if it can be removed. Thank you, Marcel

Possible to allow for product_or without completing left/right automata
by Marcel Gerber 09 May '23

09 May '23

Hello, I notice that `product_or` necessarily runs `complete` on both input automata [see this line in spot/twaalgos/product.cc <https://gitlab.lre.epita.fr/spot/spot/-/blob/b487ff4190cdec4094154486bb8c04…>]. In contrast, this is not the case for the "normal" `product`. If my thinking is correct, this would not be necessary if both input automata are Büchi automata, correct? Because the union of two incomplete Büchi automata is an incomplete Büchi automaton again, and the product automaton construction applies as normal as far as I can tell. Would it be possible to allow for this, potentially by introducing another method or exposing the `product_aux` function (incl. from Python)? Right now, running `product_or`, even on small input automata, produces absolutely unwieldy automata that are impossible to interpret. This is mostly due to my use case, where I'm using letters of an alphabet more akin to a standard DFA model, and encoding a symbol of `a` into the preposition formula `a & !b & !c` etc. This works well with single automata and with intersections, but not with unions sadly. Your help would be very much appreciated, Marcel

Spot bus error
by Beutner, Raven 20 Apr '23

20 Apr '23

Dear spot team, I think I found a bug in spot. When I run % cat foo.hoa HOA: v1 States: 1 Start: 0 AP: 3 "l0" "l1" "l2" acc-name: generalized-Buchi 0 Acceptance: 0 t --BODY-- State: 0 [(0&1)] 0 [(2)] 0 [(!2)] 0 —-END-- %autfilt --small -S foo.hoa I get a bus error. It seems that options —small and -S are both necessary to reproduce the bug. Similarly, none of the transitions in the automaton can be removed. I am running spot version 2.11.4 on an MacBook Pro with M1 Pro CPU compiled with --disable-python. Given that this seems to be a “low-level” system error, it could very well be that it is an issue with my machine setup. In this case: Do you have any idea how to fix this? Thanks already for your help! All the best, Raven PS: The current download link for the most recent version of spot (https://spot.lre.epita.fr/install.html) claims to download version 2.11.4 but actually still points to version 2.11.3.

Test suite for spot installation
by Fraca Santamaria, Estibaliz 21 Mar '23

Hi, I'm trying to install spot in my machine. I run make check and I got two errors (Fail : 2). I am just reporting it as it is asked. Please find test-suite.log attached. The installation did fail. I would like to ask if you know why did it fail and what could I do to install it. Thank you
