* Update the krell institute products to use the latest features of spack for building on cluster platforms. * Address travis error messages and resubmit the pull request. * Update the contents of openspeedshop package.py so it passes the flake8 tests. * Fix flake8 error-whitespack issue in mrnet package.py file. * Add updates based on spack reviewer feedback. * More fixes based on comments from reviewers. Switch using extend to using append, remove additional setting of PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH that should not be required due to RPATH. * More review related changes. Update MPIOption.append lines and take out xercesc references. * Create a base options function for common openspeedshop base cmake options to reduce redundencies. * Add libxml2+python depends on to get around issues with the libxml2 package file. * Using boost over 1.60.0 causes compile errors. This is a known boost bug. Also, dyninst-9.2.0 is set to be the vesrion of dyninst to use with OSS, as of now. The newer version fails to build. * Fix bad syntax in specifying the boost version range. * Update the version numbers for the krell institute components and tools: cbtf and openspeedshop. * Do not build glib for qt3, it is not needed and causes build problems at this time anyway. * A fix was added for setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the qt3 build, but if LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set the qt build fails. So so check and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH if not set, update if it is set. * Update the fix for qt3 build by setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of checking for whether it is set or not per Adams comment that spack clears LD_LIBRARY_PATH. * A fix was added for setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the qt3 build, but if LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set the qt build fails. So so check and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH if not set, update if it is set. * Trim comments to fit more concisely. * Fix tabs versus spaces and swap if and else clause check from a negative to a positive check. * Add ability to build llvm-openmp-ompt alone, with gnu compilers and use the resulting ompt interface in cbtf-krell and openspeedshop to gather openmp specific performance information. * Fix flake8 errors. * Fix flake8 errors - stage 2. * Fixes based on reviewer suggestions and comments. * Use build_type variant to set the build type and allow changing of the type. * Fix missing comma in cmake_arg list, found on another test machine. |

Spack is a multi-platform package manager that builds and installs multiple versions and configurations of software. It works on Linux, macOS, and many supercomputers. Spack is non-destructive: installing a new version of a package does not break existing installations, so many configurations of the same package can coexist.
Spack offers a simple "spec" syntax that allows users to specify versions and configuration options. Package files are written in pure Python, and specs allow package authors to write a single script for many different builds of the same package. With Spack, you can build your software all the ways you want to.
See the Feature Overview for examples and highlights.
To install spack and your first package, make sure you have Python. Then:
$ git clone https://github.com/llnl/spack.git
$ cd spack/bin
$ ./spack install libelf

When you send your request, make develop
the destination branch on the
Spack repository.
