Hi Kenneth,

I just tried that, but the problem is that I get the subdirectory from the tar in my installdir when using "buildininstalldir". Just using PackedBinary without install_cmd on the other hand puts the contents of the subdirectory in the tar into the installdir. Is this working-as-intended? Can I influence that behaviour somehow?

If you also use this:

unpack_options = '--strip-components=1'

the top-level dir will be stripped out (assuming you're using a tarball that gets unpacked with the 'tar' command).

Kenneth


Thanks,

Hi all,

short question: which easyblock is best used for the case:

- unpack to installdir first

- run a command afterwards

?

I have tried the following:

easyblock = "PackedBinary"

install_cmd = "..."

However, as soon as "install_cmd" is defined, the files are not copied to the installdir automatically anymore.

Of course, I could add a "cp" to my install_cmd or use the CmdCp easyblock, but that feels a little clumsy.

Maybe a paramter could be added to PackedBinary to simple execute a command after the unpacking? That would be helpful in a few cases, I believe.

How about setting "buildininstalldir = True" (together with using PackedBinary and install_cmd)?

Kenneth
