Technical documentation

EasyBuild

2.37.1 from cpe 21.06 on

  • The EasyConfig is derived from a mix of the EasyConfigs of the EasyBuilders repository, CSCS and University of Antwerpen, the latter for the documentation.

  • The list of dependencies was revised: added file for libmagic.

  • The configure options were also checked and extended.

  • We need to use --without-tinfo as otherwise we get an error message about cur_term not found.

2.38 from CPE 22.06 on

  • Trivial version bump of the EasyConfig,

2.38.1 from CPE 22.12 on

  • Trivial version bump of the EasyConfig of 2.38.

  • For LUMI/23.12, license information was added to the installation.

NO 2.39 from CPE 23.09 on

  • Port of the 2.38.1 EasyConfig but with the patches of the EasyBuild version added.

  • Did not work so reverted to 2.38.1.

Version 2.39.3 from LUMI/24.03 on

  • Version bump of 2.38.1 for LUMI/23.12

  • The bugs that hit us in 2.39 seem to be fixed without any patches that have since been developed by the EasyBuild community, so we deviate from 2023b.

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.
