Hello, I'm not sure wether it should be part of the toolchain but to me "base tools/libs" should somehow be standardized on. I'm thinking along the lines of xz, bzip and such (I'm more along the lines of: Provide an environment as complete as possible for the users). Most of the time these tools are not technically required but I found that a lot of users expect the tools to simply be available and in a working state.
If that opens a a completely different can of worms please feel free to delay this topic until foss/2015b is done and another solution can be discussed. /Martin On Fri, Jun 19, 2015 at 10:26 AM Kenneth Hoste <kenneth.ho...@ugent.be> wrote: > Hi Christopher, > > On 19/06/15 01:20, Christopher Samuel wrote: > > On 17/06/15 20:50, Kenneth Hoste wrote: > > > >> OpenMPI v1.8.5 (note: with 1.8.6 likely to be released very soon, > >> this may get bumped before the definition is cast into stone) > > 1.8.6 came out the night before last. :-) > > > Yes, I noticed too, I've already bumped OpenMPI to 1.8.6 in the > gompi/2015b and foss/2015b PRs. > I also bumped hwloc (a dep for OpenMPI) to 1.11.0. > > > regards, > > Kenneth > -- -- http://www.xing.com/profile/Martin_Marcher http://www.linkedin.com/in/martinmarcher Mobil: +43 / 660 / 62 45 103 UID: ATU68801424
