Agenda

This meeting is for Q&A: there are no pre-planned general topics.

  • Brian:
    • Have an upstream
    • Upgraded Spack
    • Using upstream generated runtime errors
    • What's the difference between a build cache and an upstream?
      • Should appear the same for reuse in terms of concretization
      • When using build cache, each install copies the package
    • Mark: is it possible that other things changed on your system?
      • e.g. new compilers
  • Brian:
    • Pulling the latest core changes requires also pulling all updates to packages
    • Ideally we would separate these and users could get the latest spack features without force updating the packages
    • Dom: agreed with this
      • Could provide resources for testing
      • Nightly tests
    • Peter: could we just update packages that have made it through CI
    • Brian: we should have a CI job that more-closely matches the end systems
  • New channel in slack: development-environments
