Howdy all,
How does EB deal with shell aliases? Are they totally ignored?
Is there a ("easy") way to make EB respect them?
I have the (perhaps twisted/erroneous/improper) non-EB module below
to help ease our users into using the BG/Q cross-compilers.
I also have my usual trick to make EB use the default
GCC (which Kenneth may hate and fgeorgatos is amused by, perhaps
because of the former).
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/issues/1197
though I added a dependency to the bgGCC module (below).
http://www.siliconslick.com/easybuild/ebfiles_repo_cleaned/bgsys/GCC/
That builds fine with no complaints.
However, when I go to (easy)build something with GCC, e.g. zlib,
all the aliases are ignored and it goes back to using
/usr/bin/gcc. Why?
For the most part, the module below lets users use
the cross-compiler like it was the normal gcc.
How can I make EB do that? :)
jack (who hates to write a bggcc.py (and all the others) if he can avoid it)
p.s. I have a room booked for myself at the Fairfield Inn & Suites
Austin Northwest/Arboretum for Nov. 10-13 for the hackathon.
My favorite place to stay when visiting TACC (decent breakfast
and super-close [minimal traffic lights). I highly recommend
it to those attending the hackathon at TACC preceding SC15.
[That is, I highly recommend it now that I have my room. ;) ]
