Hi Jure,

What exactly is the list of everything required? I'd be surprised if they 
excluded necessary sources from their releases. Perhaps you just need to add 
the appropriate dependencies to your  easyconfig and tell mxnet how to find 
them (if it can't auto-detect them)?

Hi all,

I'm trying to build mxnet thru EasyBuild. It's quite a challenge ...

First question:

mxnet docs tell you to do git clone https://github.com/dmlc/mxnet.git ~/mxnet 
--recursive to download the source. If I try to specify
sources = ['%(name)s-%(version)s.tar.gz']
source_urls = ['https://github.com/dmlc/mxnet/archive']
the tarball downloaded does not include everything required to build mxnet.
