Fast Downward 22.06.1

Fast Downward 22.06.1 was released on September 15, 2022.

It is a bugfix release of Fast Downward 22.06, which was released on June 16, 2022.

Highlights of 22.06:

The Apptainer and Docker distributions of the planner include LP support using the SoPlex solver. Thank you to ZIB for their solver and for giving permission to include it in the release. SoPlex is licensed under the ZIB Academic License.

Downloads

For Apptainer, Docker and Vagrant, see QuickStart for instructions on how to run the planner. That page explains how to run the latest release of Fast Downward, so you have to amend the instructions if you want to run an older release.

For the tarball, if you have satisfied all dependencies, the following should build and run the planner with configuration alias lama-first on PDDL files /path/to/domain.pddl and /path/to/problem.pddl on a Linux or macOS system:

tar -xvzf fast-downward-22.06.tar.gz
cd fast-downward-22.06
./build.py
./fast-downward.py --alias lama-first /path/to/domain.pddl /path/to/problem.pddl

For dependencies and more advanced information (including Windows builds), see the build instructions.

Limitations

For licensing reasons, the binary distributions of Fast Downward have limited support for commercial LP solvers (CPLEX and Gurobi). The Docker and Apptainer distributions only support SoPlex. The Vagrant version supports SoPlex and/or CPLEX if they are available at provisioning time. See QuickStart for more information.
