Worked on the spack/spack-packages repository to deliver a major upgrade and modernization of the CASTEP package. Upgraded CASTEP to version 25.12 and migrated its build system from Makefiles to CMake, introducing new build variants and dependencies to support the updated workflow. This transition improved maintainability and reproducibility while ensuring compatibility with current and future compiler toolchains. The work focused on build systems and package management, utilizing C, Fortran, and CMake to streamline the build process. All changes were consolidated into a single commit, with no critical bugs reported, and the updates were isolated to the CASTEP package.
