* First draft of the advanced packaging tutorial
* advanced packaging tutorial: improved phrasing
Thanks Denis and Hartzell!
* Fixed typos + reworded a couple of sentences
* Reworked module file tutorial section
First draft for the SC17 update. This includes:
- adding an introduction on module files + Spack's module
generation blueprints
- adding a set-up section and provide a docker image for easy set-up
- updating all the relevant snippets
- extending a bit some of the concepts that were already touched
* Added reference to #5582 + committed Dockerfiles
Also fixed a couple of typos spotted by Denis.
* module file tutorial: added section on template customization
* module file tutorial: fixed minor typos + rephrased a sentence
* module file tutorial: made explicit that Docker image comes with software
* module file tutorial: improved phrasing and layout.
Thanks Hartzell!
* module file tutorial: added vim and nano to editors
* module file tutorial: fixed typo
* Fixed typos
Thanks Adam!
* module file tutorial: updated Dockerfile + minor changes in introduction
Fixes#6154
For compiler options which set values using the syntax "-flag value"
(with a space between the flag and the flag's value) the flag and
value were treated as separate and reordered. This updates Spack's
logic to treat the flag and value as a single unit, even if there is
a space between them. It assumes that all flags are prefixed with
"-" and that all flag values are not.
* Skip rewriting files that are links (this also avoids issues with parsing
the output of the 'file' command for symlinks)
* Fail rather than warn for several gpg signing issues (e.g. if there is no
key available to sign with)
* Installation with 'buildcache install' only retrieves link and run
dependencies (this matches 'buildcache create' which only creates tarballs
of link/run dependencies)
* Don't rewrite RPATHs for a binary if the binary cached package was created
with relative RPATHs
* Refactor relocate_binary to operate on multiple binaries (given as a
collection of paths). This was likewise done for relocate_text and
make_binary_relative
- This isn't one of those autogenerated SVGs from a drawing program!
- This is a completely re-traced, minimalist SVG file with clearly
delineated pieces so that your favorite renderer can draw a Spack logo
at whatever resolution you want.
- Included versions with text, as well.
Fixes#6126#3183 removed the print_help function from the "modules" module.
This adds it back so that if a user invokes 'spack load foo' without
having sourced an environment setup script, they will be prompted
to do so. This also improves the placeholder message to tell the
user to invoke 'spack' as shell function rather than as an executable.
Part of the resource staging process is to place downloaded/expanded
files in the root stage. This was not happening when a resource stage
was restaged.
Fixes#5778.
Spack uses 'gcc -dumpversion' to determine the full version of gcc.
'gcc -dumpversion' no longer gives the full version on gcc 7.2.0.
'gcc -dumpfullversion' is required instead. This PR detects when
'gcc -dumpversion' gives a truncated version of '7' and in that
case retrieves the full version with 'gcc -dumpfullversion'
The name of the debug log written by the cc compiler wrapper was given
by Spec.short_spec, which includes the architecture. Somewhere along
the line Spec.format started adding spaces around the architecture
property so the filename started including spaces; the cc wrapper
script appears to ignore this, so files like spack-cc-bzip2-....in.log
(which record the wrapped compiler invocations) were not being
generated. This uses a different format string from the spec to
generate the wrapper log file names (which does not include spaces).
* when a user-provided spec refers to an already-installed package, packages with patches applied were causing validation errors based on the recorded variants in the package's class
* avoid checks on all reserved variants (not just 'patches')
* basic functionality to install spec from a binary cache when it's available; this spiders each cache for each package and could likely be more efficient by caching the results of the first check
* add spec to db after installing from binary cache
* cache (in memory) spec listings retrieved from binary caches
* print a warning vs. failing when no mirrors are configured to retrieve pre-built Spack packages
* make automatic retrieval of pre-built spack packages from mirrors optional
* no code was using the links stored in the dictionary returned by get_specs, so this simplifies the logic to return only a set of specs
* print package prefix after installing from binary cache
* provide more information to user on install progress
