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)?

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. >From the number of scripts floating around online that automate downloading of >all submodules (just one example: >http://minhajuddin.com/2016/01/10/how-to-get-a-git-archive-including-submodules/) > I conclude that github api does not offer the ability we want.
