1.5. Release Notes¶

1.5.1. Version 2.7.2 (v2.7.2)¶

Release date: November 5, 2026 Compare with v2.7.1

Summary

64 commits, 160 files changed, 1 contributor

New

GUI: buttons to delete the lock file or to „continue at own risk“ in the „already running“ dialog
Tolerant config reading via new read_config() routines (with unit tests)

Fixed

Crash-prone paths: uninitialized variables, SIGFPE and division-by-zero (PMLE decision-limit path, qnorm, modab1, fit-method snapshots, Levenberg-Marquardt)
Negative variances from MC decision-limit bracket probes clamped (PMLE weights, MCsingRun)
PMLE refused in the model dialog unless all result slots are „fit“ (LDN_1296)
Decay-row handling: symbol arrays sized to the actual number of rows, stale timing indices reset, equation numbers rebuilt on column change
Covariance ellipse: eigenvalue decomposition now uses the original covariance matrix
fname_getarg initialization in read_cfg; ProRead log line length enlarged from 512 to 4096 characters
GTK startup warnings removed
Stray debug write(N) statements migrated to the central logger; no more fort.NN files in the working directory

Improved

run_tests runs ~27 % faster (equation-number table built once instead of inside funcs)
Faster special functions: pnorm/qnorm, glngam, brentx
Eigenvalue and positive-definiteness helpers simplified

Documentation

Restored German help texts from the legacy Word help; filled about 270 missing German translations
German translation audit: fixed misaligned msgstr chains, dead section references, wrong example-project filenames, typos, pandoc anchor artifacts, raw TeX fragments, stray and unbalanced bold markup
Aligned MC threshold statements in the docs with the code (0.02, or 0.150 with PMLE)
Fixed EN sources with msgid sync: dead „Eq. (5.63)“ references replaced by equation labels, example filename corrected to vTI-Y90-16748_Blw
Fixed typos and grammar in README.md; removed duplicate README.de.md; German links point to /latest/de/; repaired the version msgstr
AGENTS.md: documented AUTO mode and platform-specific file paths

Release date: July 17, 2026 Compare with v2.7.0

Summary

13 commits, 1 contributor

Fixed

Monte Carlo mean/sd now uses all MC samples instead of histogram-filtered range
Removed redundant MCDistrib calls in MC case(3)
Added missing EXTERNAL declaration for prfunc in brentX2 (fixes gfortran 16.x compilation)
Corrected path for README.md in documentation build

New

GUI: variable to pass button labels to gtk-fortran hl_chooser routines (requires patched gtk-fortran)

Optional CMake flag to control compiler optimization level
Integrated logging module throughout the application
