grib_util module bug

[GeorgeGayno-NOAA]

I have been testing with the Rocky8 spack-stack on Hera. When I do the following commands:

module purge
module use -a /scratch1/NCEPDEV/nems/role.epic/spack-stack/spack-stack-1.6.0/envs/unified-env-rocky8/install/modulefiles/Core
module load stack-intel/2021.5.0
module display grib-util

I get the following:

....
setenv("GRIB2GRIB","/scratch1/NCEPDEV/nems/role.epic/spack-stack/spack-stack-1.6.0/envs/unified-env-rocky8/install/intel/2021.5.0/grib-util-1.3.0-ms2iw3h/bin/grib2grib2")
setenv("TOCGRIB","/scratch1/NCEPDEV/nems/role.epic/spack-stack/spack-stack-1.6.0/envs/unified-env-rocky8/install/intel/2021.5.0/grib-util-1.3.0-ms2iw3h/bin/tocgrib")
setenv("TOCGRIB2","/scratch1/NCEPDEV/nems/role.epic/spack-stack/spack-stack-1.6.0/envs/unified-env-rocky8/install/intel/2021.5.0/grib-util-1.3.0-ms2iw3h/bin/tocgrib2")
setenv("TOCGRIB2SUPER","/scratch1/NCEPDEV/nems/role.epic/spack-stack/spack-stack-1.6.0/envs/unified-env-rocky8/install/intel/2021.5.0/grib-util-1.3.0-ms2iw3h/bin/tocgrib2super")
setenv("WGRIB2","/scratch1/NCEPDEV/nems/role.epic/spack-stack/spack-stack-1.6.0/envs/unified-env-rocky8/install/intel/2021.5.0/grib-util-1.3.0-ms2iw3h/bin/wgrib2")

wgrib2 is not part of grib_util. The bin directory contains wgrib and it works. So, I think the environment variable needs to be updated.

I did not check other machines.

@AlexanderRichert-NOAA would this be a spack-stack problem? We don't set any module information in the project...

[AlexanderRichert-NOAA]

Yep, this is in the spack-stack config. No idea why. I'll put in a PR to remove that setting...

[AlexanderRichert-NOAA]

The fix: JCSDA/spack-stack#1044

[edwardhartnett]

Can I close this issue?

[AlexanderRichert-NOAA]

Yes this can be closed, we're tracking this under spack-stack (and it's already fixed on most systems): JCSDA/spack-stack#1097
