PRIMA is a package for solving general nonlinear optimization problems without using derivatives. It provides the reference implementation for Powell's derivative-free optimization methods, i.e., COBYLA, UOBYQA, NEWUOA, BOBYQA, and LINCOA. PRIMA means Reference Implementation for Powell's methods with Modernization and Amelioration, P for Powell.

1. nagfor Release 7.1(Hanzomon) Build 7149 released on March 5, 2024, fixed all the bugs spotted, but introduced an ICE when compiling PRIMA ( http://www.libprima.net ). The ICE has nothing to do with half-precision real, because it occurs when PRIMA is configured to use single or double precision. It can be reproduced by
```
git clone https://github.com/libprima/prima.git && cd prima && git checkout ec42cb0 && cd fortran/examples/lincoa && make ntest
```
2. nagfor 7.2 released on 6 March, 2024 included neither the ICE nor the fixes for the bugs.
