Hello EasyBuilders, I just wanted to update you on the outcome of the full regression test on EB v1.5.0rc1 that ran last night on our systems.
Out of all 1,340 builds (one for each easyconfig file) only 3 failed, i.e. the three builds for the DOLFIN easyconfigs (see https://jenkins1.ugent.be/view/EasyBuild/job/easybuild-full-regtest_develop/22/testReport/). The bug that caused the failures was fixed this morning (see https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/pull/649). While collecting the test results, I noticed a couple of inconsistencies in easyconfig files w.r.t. filename and the name of the resulting module. While we were at it, we also fixed these (very minor) issues, see https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/295). After fixing the bugs in the v1.5.x (and develop) branches, we tagged v1.5.0rc2, and restarted a full regression test to make make 100% sure we didn't introduce any other problems. Once the regtest completes, we should have EasyBuild v1.5.0 ready for release. I'll update the release notes in each of the EasyBuild repositories ASAP. regards, Kenneth On 30 May 2013, at 14:39, Kenneth Hoste wrote: > Hello EasyBuilders, > > After successfully running initial test builds (Python/numpy/scipy, R, > WIEN2k, WRF and WPS for their all toolchains) using the current develop > branches, > we feel confident enough to tag a first release candidate of EasyBuild v1.5.0. > > To install EasyBuild v1.5.0rc1, use something like: > > easy_install --prefix=$HOME/.local > http://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/archive/v1.5.0.x.tar.gz > easy_install --prefix=$HOME/.local > http://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyblocks/archive/v1.5.x.tar.gz > easy_install --prefix=$HOME/.local > http://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/archive/v1.5.x.tar.gz > > (and then set your $PATH and $PTYHONPATH correctly) > > If you run into problems with this release candidate, please notify us by > replying to this email or opening an issue. > > The intent is to release EasyBuild v1.5.0 tomorrow (Friday May 31st 2013), if > a full regression test, in which > all easyconfigs included in this release are built, completes without > failures. > > > regards, > > Kenneth > > On 19 May 2013, at 21:06, Kenneth Hoste wrote: > >> Hello EasyBuilders, >> >> Just a brief update w.r.t. the planned schedule for EasyBuild v1.5: >> >> * feature freeze on Friday May 24th 2013 (9am) >> * planned release on Friday May 31st 2013 >> >> As a reminder: only pull requests that were opened before the feature freeze >> deadline will be considered for inclusion in EasyBuild v1.5. >> Subsequent pull requests will be tagged for v1.6. >> >> All details are available at >> https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/Release-schedule. >> >> >> regards, >> >> Kenneth >
