Hi,
I am trying to build Python with the Intel compiler, using the iomkl/2017b
toolchain since we do not have a licence for Intel MPI, and therefore cannot
use the intel toolchain.
As the .eb files are identical for foss/2017b and intel/2017b (a part from the
toolchain, of couse), I just made a .eb file using the iomkl chain.
Unfortunately, Python does not build correctly, it fails during sanity checks,
as some of the extensions have not built correctly (the first it finds is
paramiko). The day before I built Python using the foss/2017b toolchain without
any problems whatsoever. But it would not be the first time something fails
with the Intel compiler, because it may be more picky.
Has anybody had any success building Python-3.6.2-intel-2017b.eb from the
develop branch? Using iomkl should give exactly the same compiler.
I looked at the log files, there are a number of exceptions when building the
paramiko module that are not seen in the log of the foss/2017b build. They
relate to missing symbols in openssl
ERROR:root:code for hash sha3_224 was not found.

The weird thing is that if I load Python built with foss/2017b, then
hashlib._hashlib is missing these SHA3 variants, too, but the modules have
built properly.
Does anybody know how to handle this? Or has anybody already managed to build
Python-3.6.2-intel-2017b.eb?
Best regards
Jakob
