Hi All,
I have installed a new toolchain, gmpolf-3.0.4.
Now I want to install Paraview, which depends on quite a few other packages.
During the installation, I came up with following comments:
- --try-toolchain is not recursive. Is that 'not yet', or is there a
reason behind that?
- --try-toolchain produces a eb file, but does not copy it to the lib
directory at the end. Perhaps that could be added?
- in one of my attemps, at the end of an installation, this error came up:
(should only have 'files' and 'dirs' keys, values should be lists (at
least one non-empty)).
This could be checked before compilation as part of the eb-file sanity
check.
During the installation of Qt, some "Project Messages" pop up, and the
waiting time during the configuration is sometimes large. As a result,
eb stops and prints:
ERROR: EasyBuild encountered an exception (at easybuild/main.py:833 in
build_and_install_software): autoBuild Failed (last 300 chars):
pensource-src-4.8.5/src/3rdparty/webkit/Source/JavaScriptCore/JavaScriptCore.pro

Project MESSAGE: Disabling video due the lack of GLib/Gio/GStreamer.
However, this message is not an error, and if I configure myself,
without eb, the whole process runs through. How can I avoid eb from
stopping on these messages?
Kind regards,
Bart
