Includes :
- treatment of a generic hierarchy (i.e. lapack + mpi + compiler)
- possibility to specify which compilers are to be considered Core
- correct treatment of the 'family' directive
- unit tests for most new features
When re-using previously downloaded tarballs, spack copies from
`var/spack/stage/PACKAGE-VERSION-HASH/downloaded_file` to
`var/spack/cache/PACKAGE/downloaded_file`. This fails if the source is owned by
a different user (`shutil.copy` tries to retain all meta data including file
ownership). Change to a non-meta-data copy function (`shutil.copyfile`).
This closes#1308, where fetching a non-expanded resource from a mirror
will cause an error.
This also ensures that when a URL resource is fetched from a mirror,
that it will be named as though it were retrieved from the original
URL. This is particularly useful for non-expanded resources since it
ensures that the resource name is consistent for the installation
(this is less important for expanded resources because the build takes
place inside the expanded resource).
- Spec._dup() incorrectly copied cached hashes and normal/concrete values
even when dependency structure was not preserved.
- Now these are only copied when *all* dependencies are copied.
- Currently, build dependencies are not currently hashed; we are waiting
to hash these until we have smarter concretization that can reuse more
installed specs. The layout needs to account for this when checking
whethert things are installed.
- Transaction logic had gotten complicated -- DB would not reindex when
corrupt, rather the error would be reported (ugh).
- DB will now print the error and force a rebuild when errors are
detected reading the old databse.
- Spack currently not hashing build deps (to allow more reuse of packages
and less frequent re-installing)
- Fast in-memory hash should still hash *all* deptypes, and installed
specs will only reflect link and run deps.
- We'll revert this when we can concretize more liberally based on what
is already installed.
- can now pass these to Spec.copy() and Spec._dup():
- deps=True
- deps=False
- deps=(list of deptypes)
- Makes it easy to filter out only part of a spec.
Everything in the __all__ list in the spack module is from some other
module, so only do their documentation in their original location. This
also avoids issues like the fact that some directive names shadow spack
core module names.
