- Improved output for
spack providers
: https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/7748 - Fixed bug related to incorrect handling of
when
directives on package subclasses: https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/7746
-
Mike: installing a set of dependencies. Each of the packages has a configure script that specifies valid versions for dependencies
- It would be nice to extract version ranges from configure scripts that are provided with packages
- Patrick: also running into the same issue. For now this is worked-around somewhat by specifying exact versions in
depends_on
- In https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/7753 for example no versions are specified in depends_on directives, but the installation line does specify versions. Some of this was also resolved by specifying packages as externals.
- Mike: are the gnome dependencies like LLVM, in that there are extra libraries that move up in versions in tandem with one another
- Perhaps it makes sense to make a super package that aggregates a set of gnome deps together. Depending on a specific version of the super package in turn translates into a set of specific underlying package dependencies.
-
In progress PR to refactor initialization: https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/7774
- Make Spack load faster (move out things that are loaded every time Spack is run but not used every time)
- Provides a path towards user-specified configuration directories
- Fairly large and likely to touch many other core PRs
-
Spack Setup capabilities being added to Spack Environments https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/7830 Here are some real Spack setup / environment command lines that work, but I don't like them...
bin/spack --debug install --fake --setup everytrace,hwloc everytrace
bin/spack --debug env add --setup everytrace c1 everytrace

Patrick: spack-not-using-already-installed-packages strikes again
- Does specifying hashes of already-installed packages work in the meantime?
- New concretizer + environments may help: concretizer tries to use already-installed instances of packages
