Added DFLAGS to the `make.inc` file being written.
These macros are also added to the language specific variables
like CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and FCFLAGS. Changed `spec.satisfies('foo')`
with `'foo' in spec` in `intel-mkl`, see #4135. Added a basic
build interface to `intel-mpi`.
* Add GCC 7
* Allow users to build subset of GCC compilers with multi-value variant.
* Add comment explaining what 'all' actually means
* More specific golang support
* Only require Zip when building Java
* Comment out provide directives that don't currently work
* Add Ada support
* Use conflicts directive
* Fix joining of languages
* Need special flag to build jit
* Explicitly declare GNAT download extension
* Import tty, update lib64 to lib
* BRIG and Go are not supported on macOS
* Simplify formatting and imports
* JIT patch required for newer versions as well
* Updating bamtools to include a dependency for zlib.
In a standard compile, bamtools will fail if zlib headers are not installed on the target machine. In order to maintain compatibility with all systems -- and since zlib is included already as a dependency for cmake -- this patch adds zlib as a link dependency for the bamtools package.
* Modified cmake rpath include.
Bamtools has a non-standard library location, so we need to append $prefix/lib/bamtools to the rpath. Not sure there's a better way to do this...
* Fixing syntax error in package.py
Fixed a non-terminated parenthesis on line 46.
* Updated bamtools to be a CMakePackage
Removed extraneous code, and altered the package to extend cmake_args
including the non-standard library location.
* UpRemoving cmake dependency and removing blank line from end of file
* Updates to cmake_args.
Removed the duplicate definition of std_cmake_args in favor of simply overriding the CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH variable that is provided. This should allow the package to be linked correctly to itself.
python+tk will not build because it depends (indirectly) on python~tk
via libxcb. There are efforts to allow multiple instances of a package
to concretize together but they are ongoing so in the meantime this
comments out the dependencies and adds TODOs
* SV variants are evaluated correctly in `when=` statements fixes#4113
The problem here was tricky:
```python
spec.satisfies(other)
```
changes already the MV variants in others into SV variants (where
necessary) if spec is concrete. If it is not concrete it does
nothing because we may be acting at a pure syntactical level.
When evaluating a `when=` keyword spec is for sure not concrete
as it is in the middle of the concretization process. In this case we
have to trigger manually the substitution in other to not end up
comparing a MV variant "foo=bar" to a SV variant "foo=bar" and having
False in return. Which is wrong.
* sv variants: improved error message for typos in "when=" statements
Modifications:
- added support for multi-valued variants
- refactored code related to variants into variant.py
- added new generic features to AutotoolsPackage that leverage multi-valued variants
- modified openmpi to use new features
- added unit tests for the new semantics
## Motivation
Python installations are both important and unfortunately inconsistent. Depending on the Python version, OS, and the strength of the Earth's magnetic field when it was installed, the name of the Python executable, directory containing its libraries, library names, and the directory containing its headers can vary drastically.
I originally got into this mess with #3274, where I discovered that Boost could not be built with Python 3 because the executable is called `python3` and we were telling it to use `python`. I got deeper into this mess when I started hacking on #3140, where I discovered just how difficult it is to find the location and name of the Python libraries and headers.
Currently, half of the packages that depend on Python and need to know this information jump through hoops to determine the correct information. The other half are hard-coded to use `python`, `spec['python'].prefix.lib`, and `spec['python'].prefix.include`. Obviously, none of these packages would work for Python 3, and there's no reason to duplicate the effort. The Python package itself should contain all of the information necessary to use it properly. This is in line with the recent work by @alalazo and @davydden with respect to `spec['blas'].libs` and friends.
## Prefix
For most packages in Spack, we assume that the installation directory is `spec['python'].prefix`. This generally works for anything installed with Spack, but gets complicated when we include external packages. Python is a commonly used external package (it needs to be installed just to run Spack). If it was installed with Homebrew, `which python` would return `/usr/local/bin/python`, and most users would erroneously assume that `/usr/local` is the installation directory. If you peruse through #2173, you'll immediately see why this is not the case. Homebrew actually installs Python in `/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.12_2` and symlinks the executable to `/usr/local/bin/python`. `PYTHONHOME` (and presumably most things that need to know where Python is installed) needs to be set to the actual installation directory, not `/usr/local`.
Normally I would say, "sounds like user error, make sure to use the real installation directory in your `packages.yaml`". But I think we can make a special case for Python. That's what we decided in #2173 anyway. If we change our minds, I would be more than happy to simplify things.
To solve this problem, I created a `spec['python'].home` attribute that works the same way as `spec['python'].prefix` but queries Python to figure out where it was actually installed. @tgamblin Is there any way to overwrite `spec['python'].prefix`? I think it's currently immutable.
## Command
In general, Python 2 comes with both `python` and `python2` commands, while Python 3 only comes with a `python3` command. But this is up to the OS developers. For example, `/usr/bin/python` on Gentoo is actually Python 3. Worse yet, if someone is using an externally installed Python, all 3 commands may exist in the same directory! Here's what I'm thinking:
If the spec is for Python 3, try searching for the `python3` command.
If the spec is for Python 2, try searching for the `python2` command.
If neither are found, try searching for the `python` command.
## Libraries
Spack installs Python libraries in `spec['python'].prefix.lib`. Except on openSUSE 13, where it installs to `spec['python'].prefix.lib64` (see #2295 and #2253). On my CentOS 6 machine, the Python libraries are installed in `/usr/lib64`. Both need to work.
The libraries themselves change name depending on OS and Python version. For Python 2.7 on macOS, I'm seeing:
```
lib/libpython2.7.dylib
```
For Python 3.6 on CentOS 6, I'm seeing:
```
lib/libpython3.so
lib/libpython3.6m.so.1.0
lib/libpython3.6m.so -> lib/libpython3.6m.so.1.0
```
Notice the `m` after the version number. Yeah, that's a thing.
## Headers
In Python 2.7, I'm seeing:
```
include/python2.7/pyconfig.h
```
In Python 3.6, I'm seeing:
```
include/python3.6m/pyconfig.h
```
It looks like all Python 3 installations have this `m`. Tested with Python 3.2 and 3.6 on macOS and CentOS 6
Spack has really nice support for libraries (`find_libraries` and `LibraryList`), but nothing for headers. Fixed.
