[bug#48388] [PATCH 0/3] Add xgboost.

[Vinicius Monego <monego@posteo.net>]

This patchset adds the binaries, C++ library and Python frontend for the XGBoost gradient boosting framework.

I noticed r-xgboost in the packages, which compiles a bundled copy of xgboost. Ideally it would inherit from xgboost and build from there, but I do not work with R so I can't help with this.

I also had to do some dirty hack in the python patch for reading version and using libxgboost from the xgboost package. Lmk is there is a better way to handle this.

Vinicius Monego (3):
  gnu: Add dmlc-core.
  gnu: Add xgboost.
  gnu: Add python-xgboost.
