Dear EasyBuilders,
I'm happy to announce the release of EasyBuild version 3.3.1 [1].
You may be surprised, but this release is even better than the last one,
making this (once again) the best EasyBuild version ever!
Highlights include:
* support for --merge-pr (mostly intended for EasyBuild maintainers),
cfr.
http://easybuild.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Integration_with_GitHub.html#merging-easyconfig-pull-requests-merge-pr
* getting rid of references to 'hpcugent' after move to
github.com/easybuilders
* incl. changing the default target account for --new-pr,
--update-pr & --upload-test-report to 'easybuilders'
* enhancements to the easyblocks for ABAQUS, Boost, HDF5 & Anaconda
* support for 6 new software packages, incl. Miniconda2& OpenCoarrays
* updated easyconfigs for ABAQUS 2017, GCC(core) 6.4.0, Keras
2.0.5, NCBI-Toolkit 18.0.0, numpy 1.13.0, Tensorflow 1.2.0, etc.
* fixed source URLs for HDF5 & Tensorflow
This brings the total number of supported software packages to 1,262 [2]!
A detailed overview of all changes is available in the release notes [3].
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release in one way or another!
To upgrade to EasyBuild v3.3.1, there are several options, see [4].
Two particularly easy options include:
* eb --install-latest-eb-release # requires EasyBuild v2.9.0 or
more recent
* eb --from-pr 4877 # use easyconfig from PR #4877 [5]
Enjoy!
