Please pick the version you prefer for Coq 8.20 in Coq Platform 2025.01

[MSoegtropIMC]

The Coq team released Coq 8.20.0 on September 3rd, 2024.
The corresponding Coq Platform release 2025.01 should be released before Jan 31st, 2025.
It can be delayed in case of difficulties until Feb 28th, 2025, but this should be an exception.

This issue is to inform you that the opam package we are currently testing in Coq Platform CI works fine with Coq 8.20.0.

Coq Platform CI is currently testing opam package coq-mathcomp-analysis.1.7.0
from official repository https://coq.inria.fr/opam/released/packages/coq-mathcomp-analysis/coq-mathcomp-analysis.1.7.0/opam.

In case this is the version you want to see in Coq Platform, there is nothing to do for you - please just close this issue.

In case you would prefer to see an updated or an older version in the upcoming Coq Platform 2025.01, please inform us as soon as possible and before Dec 31st, 2024!

The working branch of Coq Platform, can be found here main.
It contains package pick ~8.20~2025.01 which already supports Coq version 8.20.0 and contains already working (possibly patched / commit pinned) Coq Platform packages.

In case you want to select a different version, please don't close this issue, even after creating the new tag and/or opam package.
We will close the issue after updating Coq Platform.
This is a measure of 'double book keeping' in order to avoid that we ship the wrong version.

In any case, Coq Platform won't be released before this issue is closed!

Thanks!

P.S.: this issue has been created automatically based on CI status.

We will have a new release by next month so maybe the version 1.8.0 will be more appropriate.

@affeldt-aist : do you plan to fix the log path conflict issue many mathcomp dependent packages suffer from if mathcomp-analysis is installed? If so it might make sense to communicate this instead of adjusting all other packages.

[affeldt-aist]

The path conflict has been solved in master, so it is a matter of doing a new release, which is planned before the end of this month.

[affeldt-aist]

We have released version 1.8.0 a few hours ago, this is the preferred version for the Coq platform since it fixes the infamous path.v problem.

I updated Coq Platform to use coq-mathcomp-analysis version 1.8.0 via coq/platform#454 => closing.
