* 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.
* 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
Adds the IceT compositing library from Sandia/Kitware.
Most default functionality needed for image compositing is
added, OpenGL acceleration for very large displays is disabled.
Downstream usage:
most VTK based software which supports parallel image compositing,
such as VisIt, Paraview and in our use-case
[ISAAC](https://github.com/ComputationalRadiationPhysics/isaac).
* Force the recipe for Lua to use the spack compiler.
I'm not sure how the old recipe worked for anyone. The Lua Makefiles set
`CC=gcc` and for my spack environment the first `gcc` found in my `PATH` is
`$SPACK_ROOT/lib/spack/env/gcc`, which is a directory. This caused the build
to fail. My change drops the `-std=gnu99`, but this option doesn't appear
to be required for a sucessful build.
* Preserve the '-std=gnu99' compile option.
* fix tau installation issue : setup_environment() is
called before install phase when 'Makefile.*' doesn't
exist (causing list index out of range error).
* Added detailed comment suggested by @alalazo
* November 1 seems to have brought a new texlive release, updating the
digest to match.
Also switching the url from their automagic mirror to an explicit
site to avoid inconsistencies during their updates.
It seems like only yesterday (#2073) that I updated this....
* Add comment to url warning about mirror updates
Add a comment to the download info warning to use a
specific site rather than the mirror, to avoid wobbles
during their asynchronous updates.
* Fix typo ('to no' -> 'do not')
