A use case where the previous approach was failing is :
- more than one spack process running on compute nodes
- stage directory is a link to fast LOCAL storage
In this case the processes may try to unlink something that is "dead" for them, but actually used by other processes on storage they cannot see.
+ This change fixes a problem that manifests when trilinos is built against a
MKL installation defined as an external package. In this scenario, the MKL
libraries are found one directory deeper than for the case where spack
provides MKL. The extra directory is a platform name like 'intel64'.
+ The changes in this PR were recommended by contributor @davydden. I
implemented and tested with intel@16.0.3. These changes fix the issue I
reported. I did not attempt building trilinos against other BLAS
implementations.

* mfem: add tarball extension
Add tarball extension as a result of a feature added in PR#1926, which
fixes earlier issues in this PR (PR#1202). Prior to adding this feature,
Spack would not autodetect the extension of the tarball downloaded from
the redirected, shorted Google URL, requiring a messy hack. This hack
worked for mfem version 3.1, but led to errors when adding mfem version
3.2 because the files downloaded from Google did not contain the package
name, version number, or extension. Adding the extension enables Spack
to rename the tarball downloaded from Google to a sensible name that is
compatible with its filename parsing algorithms so that Spack "does the
right thing" (detects that the file is a GZipped tarball, decompresses
it, runs GNU Make) in fetching and staging the package.
* mfem: add linkage to KLU & BTF
Add linkage to the KLU & BTF solvers, which are now enabled in MFEM for
versions 3.2 and later.
* mfem: Add superlu-dist variant
Add linkage to SuperLU_DIST, which is a new linear solver interface for
MFEM versions 3.2 and later.
* mfem: add netcdf variant for cubit mesh support
Add NetCDF variant for MFEM versions 3.2 and later; installing the
NetCDF interfaces enables CUBIT mesh support.
* fix blas-lapack in scipy and numpy
* py-numpy: do not set rpath on macOS
* py-scipy: do not set Blas/Lapack. This appears to be picked up from py-numpy
* py-numpy: don't write rpath= in Sierra only
* py-numpy: add a link to build notes
* Updated nettle to have m4 as an immediate dependency to match new PATH
construction logic which only includes immediate dependencies.
* Update package.py
* This fixes a bug in concretization. Before the recent change to the
algorithm, the intent was that the @develop version, although
"greater" than numberic versions, is never preferred BY DEFAULT over
numeric versions.
To test this... suppose you have a package with no `preferred=True` in
it, and nothing in `packages.yaml`, but with a `develop` version. For
the sake of this example, I've hacked my `python/package.py` to work
this way.
Without bugfix (WRONG: user should never get develop by default):
```
python@develop%clang@7.3.0-apple~tk~ucs4 arch=darwin-elcapitan-x86_64
...
```
With bugfix (RIGHT: largest numeric version selected):
```
python@3.5.2%clang@7.3.0-apple~tk~ucs4 arch=darwin-elcapitan-x86_64
...
```
* Documented version selection in concretization algo.
* Fix typos
* flake8
* Fix various documentation bugs
* Keep long option names, but don't include in Command Index
* Use long option name
* Explicitly designate sections to be listed in the Command Index
* Consistent menu bar titles
* Added check for ppc64le because configure cant guess the build type for rhel on ppc64le
Expand/clarify description of dependency types
Refactored getting the arch so that its less verbose
* Fixed flake8 issues
Input/output/error streams not directed to None or 'str' were not being closed
because `close()` method was being called on the argument value (a string type)
instead of the open file descriptor object.
* Fix bug in handling of precedence of preferred=True vs. versions given in packages.yaml (#1556)
* Standardized comparison of versions: numeric versions are always greater than non-numeric versions; and non-numeric versions are sorted alphabetically.
This is
a) simple
b) ensures that non-numeric versions (such as 'develop') in package.py are not chosen ahead of numeric versions, when nothing is specified in packages.yaml
Fixes Issue #1557
* Removed debugging output
* Fix variable shadowing bug
* Ensure develop < numeric version.
* Bug fix.
* Passes all unit tests in versions.py
* flake8 fixes
* flake8 fixes
* Changed type test to be more correct.

This closes#1757 which provides an example of a url scheme where the
version appears after the extension. Instead of extending the parsing
logic to handle this case, this commit allows the user to specify
their extension type. This helps Spack choose the appropriate
decompressor and mirror archive filename.
