- Added 'dap' and 'cdmremote' variants
This is based on work in #2324 with the following motivation:
Turn off DAP support by deafult. DAP requires curl, which has issues
with circular dependencies. For 95% of NetCDF users that do not need
DAP, turning it off avoides this rats nest of problems.
- Added 'parallel-netcdf' variant
To support work with parallel-netcdf
- Added 'shared' and 'static' build separation
* Update go-bootstrap package
The last C based Go src tree was the 1.4 series. For a while they
were cutting new releases so that people could bootstrap from a C only
system. Now they're recommending that you either use the release-1.4
branch or that you use a date-stamped tarball that they'll produce on
an as-needed basis.
There are several issues that keep 1.4.2 from building on a CentOS 7
system.
I've switched to the date based tarball.
The cgo bits were also mis-behaving, but they're not needed for the
bootstrapping task so I've set an environment variable that disables
them.
Details [on the install-from-source
page](https://golang.org/doc/install/source#go14) and these issues:
- https://github.com/golang/go/issues/17545
- https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16352.
* Update go package
Switched from pulling from the git repository to using the source
tarballs and added digest values.
Added support for 1.7.3, continued supporting 1.6.2, including patches
for a couple of problems (details in
[17545](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/17545) and
[17986](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/17986).
Dropped support for 1.5.4 and 1.4.2 because they no longer pass their
tests and the patches above to not apply.
Different compilers have different flags for PIC (position-independent
code). This patch provides a common ground to accessing it inside specs.
See discussions in #508 and #2373. This patch does not address the issue
of mixed compilers as mentioned in #508.
Package provides a 'list_url' attribute which may be searched to find
download links. #1822 created a slowdown for all tests by always
searching this URL. This reenables dynamic search only in cases where
all other fetchers fail. This also only enables dynamic search when
'mirror_only' is set to false.
* Updating SuperLU package file with ability to build version 4.3 (before they added cmake) with external blas or internal blas, and added capability to build the latest version 5.2.1 (with cmake) with internal blas.
* Updating SuperLU package file with suggested changes, i.e. reorganizing installation methods based on version, adding cmake dependency when necessary, removing any use of internal blas, and also adding fpic variant.
* Fixing flake8 failures.
* Update flex package url's and versions
The old sourceforge page for flex is now defunct. While version 2.6.0
still downloads fine, later versions are no longer hosted there.
Development continues on github. I've adjusted urls to point to this
new location.
In addition, from 2.6.0 onwards, a new naming scheme for releases seems
to have been adopted. I've created a url_for_version function to sort
this out.
* Change flex to an AutotoolsPackage
Also move the url_for_version function to the end of the package
definition.
* Implement the autoreconf function for flex
The option -s now causes file and line number information to be printed
along with any invocation of msg, info, etc...
This will greatly ease debugging.
- Seems like older git versions won't be able to clone an LFS repo.
- Reverting to an external link for the slides to avoid storing an 8MB
file in the repo and to avoid using git LFS.
