EasyBuild

2.69.1 for CPE 21.06

  • Started from a mix of the EasyBuilders and University of Antwerpen EasyConfig files

  • An additional dependency was needed: libiconv.

  • NOTE 2021-12-06: Replaced PCRE2 dependency with PCRE dependency as it turned out that GLib downloaded PCRE during the installation process.

Version 2.73.0 from CPE 22.06 on

  • Trivial version bump of the 2.69.1 one.

Version 2.75.0 from CPE 22.12 on

  • Almost trivial version bump of the 2.73.0 one,

    • but switched from PCRE to PCRE2

    • and trying the new fix_python_shebang_for option.

Version 2.77.1 from CPE 23.03 on

  • Trivial version bump of the 2.75.0 one.

  • But it looks like the iconv flag is no longer supported, so remove this.

  • Note: Even though GLib itself installs fine with Clang 16, it looks like using its header files causes problems reporting type cast errors that seem impossible to turn off.

Archived EasyConfigs

The EasyConfigs below are additonal easyconfigs that are not directly available on the system for installation. Users are advised to use the newer ones and these archived ones are unsupported. They are still provided as a source of information should you need this, e.g., to understand the configuration that was used for earlier work on the system.
