Hi,
When tring to install via bootstrap_eb.py on CentOS 7 I get the
following error:
[[INFO]] EasyBuild bootstrap script (version 20180925.01, MD5:
4e568883f293f94ade46a14d25cb6b94)
...
easybuild.tools.build_log.EasyBuildError: 'EasyBuild requires Lmod >=
v6.6.3, found v6.5.1'
The documentation doesn't mention this dependency. Should it?
We don't explicitly mention the required Lmod version in the
documentation since that increases the risk of having outdated
documentation when the version is bumped (like it was for EasyBuild v3.7.0).
The version requirement will be slightly lowered again in the upcoming
EasyBuild v3.7.1 btw, see
https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/2593.
And you'll get the possibility to bypass the module version check
entirely (at your own risk, of course), see
https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/2610 .
For now, you can install previous version (EasyBuild v3.6.2) instead
doesn't require Lmod 6.x yet (in fact, it'll still be happy with an
ancient Lmod 5.x), as follows:
EASYBUILD_BOOTSTRAP_FORCE_VERSION=3.6.2 python bootstrap_eb.py ...
