SDK resources moved or missing?

Hi,

The link to the SDK on https://docs.mesastar.org/en/release-r23.05.1/installation.html to the installation instructions of the SDK (http://www.astro.wisc.edu/~townsend/static.php?ref=mesasdk) is dead.
The download locations for fpx3 and lapack95 that were previously at http://www.astro.wisc.edu/~townsend/resource/download/sdk2/src/ are now also not working (we use these in the AMUSE interface for MESA 15140). Have these been moved?
If so, what is the new link?

Thanks, Steven

The link on the MESA docs website was somewhat recently updated to http://user.astro.wisc.edu/~townsend/static.php?ref=mesasdk

Does that solve your issue?

rieder commented

Not completely. We use a download script (https://github.com/amusecode/amuse/blob/main/src/amuse/community/mesa_r15140/download.py) to get the packages in the SDK and build them ourselves - but the source files have moved and I can't find the new link on that page.

Ah, thanks! @rhdtownsend can you help us out with that?

there's at least one non-working link on the docs website (under "Confirm that you installed the MESA SDK correctly

Please check that you followed the MESA SDK installation instructions. Pay particular attention to the prerequisites for your system.")

Thanks! Just fixed the two broken links that were near here on the installation page.
