This repository is (will be) a satellite spack repository for building HPCToolkit prerequisite packages. This is for building the 3rd-party packages with the quirks and special contraints needed for HPCToolkit. This repo, when finished, will replace hpctoolkit-externals and be moved to the HPCToolkit project on github.
Spack is copyright Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC, and is available as a github project at:

To use this repository to build the HPCToolkit prerequisite packages, clone both this repository and the main LLNL spack repository.
git clone https://github.com/mwkrentel/myrepo
git clone https://github.com/spack/spack
Run the ./setup.sh script in myrepo to link the myrepo satellite
repository to the main spack repository. This script writes two files
in the main spack tree: config.yaml sets the location of the install
prefix, and repos.yaml sets the location of the satellite
repository.
This script takes two arguments: the path to the spack repository and
optionally, the path to an install prefix. If you don't specify an
install prefix, then the default spack install directory is
<spack-root>/opt/spack/.
If successful, the setup.sh script displays the list of known
repositories and the install prefix. This should include myrepo first
and then the main spack repository. For example:
cd myrepo
./setup spack-root [prefix]
==> 2 package repositories.
hpctoolkit /home/krentel/myrepo
builtin /home/krentel/spack-root/var/spack/repos/builtin
install prefix: /home/krentel/prefix
Source the env.sh script (for bash) to add the spack bin directory
to your PATH, or else run the spack command with a full pathname.
Finally, run spack install package ... to install packages.
Note: this is a work in progress and only a few packages are currently available.
