Hi, We are maintaining the ASE (Atomic Simulation Environment) and GPAW (a Density Functional Theory code). GPAW depends on ASE, and the development of the two packages is tightly integrated. In addition, a few other packages depend on ASE.
We would like to release new versions of ASE + GPAW, also on the 2018b toolchain (which is the one we use ourselves). That does, however, create a version conflict according to the Travis CI on github, see https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/8751 The problem is that one version of GPAW (and a few other packages) depend on ASE 3.17.0 and this new GPAW depends on ASE 3.18.0. It was my impression that this could be solved by changing the package suffix, i.e. call the new version of GPAW GPAW/19.8.1-foss-2018b-ASE-3.18.0-Python-3.6.6 instead of GPAW/19.8.1-foss-2018b-Python-3.6.6 . However, that does not work and the Travis CI self test still complains. Have I misunderstood what I should do, or is this just not possible?
