Thanks for the suggestion.
Seems like a lot of hops to go through to manage to install a software
as is recommended by the developers of that software though....
I like my patch to petsc.py better.
Thanks again,
Maxime

If you do not want to keep the install directory you could use
"postinstallcmds" in your easyconfig to remove the build directory.
Thanks,
Cormac.

Ok, I tried it this afternoon.
Indeed, buildininstalldir = True does keep the downloaded packages
there... but it also keeps the build directory in there, which
clutters the installation directory for no good reason.

I did not know about that option, so I have not.
This would presumably keep all of the PETSc configure files in
place though.... which is not really what we want for a proper
install.

Have you tried.

Ok, indeed, after digging in the code, I see that the
install_step does delete the install directory before
installation. This breaks an installation of PETSc which
would use the "--download" options. sourceinstall = True
does prevent this... but it requires to install in the
source directory.
I made a pull request to modify petsc.py to give the option
to perform a download install. The pull request is here:

We can move further discussion to the PR. Posting here just
so that people who may be interested can follow.

Some more info I discovered.
The files that PETSc downloads are actually correctly
installed in the final installation directory during the
configure phase. However, somewhere between the
configure and the install phase, something (I suspect
EasyBuild) deletes them. Is it possible that EasyBuild
deletes the content of the installation directory
between the configure and the install phase ?

Actually, looking through the log file, I
see PETSc which says to run make install,
but easybuild runs "make" without the
install option:

'/dev/shm/mboisson/PETSc/3.7.5/iompi-2016.4/petsc-3.7.5'
It runs "make install" later, but not with
the arguments that PETSc instructs to use:
Please open an issue on this, or a PR to the
PETSc easyblock to fix this issue.
Will do... as soon as I figure out a fix. Even when
running things manually I run into problems. Not
sure why yet.
