Agenda

• (1-1:30pm) Creating a test package for testing binary caches
  • (Patrick) Make an install tarball: https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/15687
    • 3 packages, all CMake
    • Works on Desktop (Ubuntu Xenial)
    • On Travis it isn't working
      • See: https://travis-ci.org/github/spack/spack/jobs/667416191?utm_medium=notification&utm_source=github_status
    • The tests in this PR require pre-made binaries
      • Since the input packages for the tests use CMake, this is required to avoid building CMake
      • We don't need packages that use CMake to exercise binary caching
  • What challenges exist now
• Recently-merged PRs of general interest
  • (TODO: fill this in by 3/26)
