Dear list,
I'm having the following issue when trying to build cairo.

Strange because pixman does exist for GCCcore/8.3.0:

It's first time I have this issue and I just upgraded to EB 4.1.0...
maybe it's related?!
I have this in my dev.cfg:
module-naming-scheme = HierarchicalMNS
I read something about fixed-installdir-naming-scheme. As I'm using
HierarchicalMNS, I understand it's better to add this to my config:
[override]
fixed-installdir-naming-scheme = 0
I have tried to build cairo with and without this option without change.
Enabling or disabling fixed-installdir-naming-scheme only affects the
name of the installation directory (and whether or not you can use "eb
--module-only" to install an additional module file with a different
module naming scheme for an existing installation, see also
https://easybuild.readthedocs.io/en/latest/EasyBuild4-overview-of-changes.html#fixed-installdir-naming-scheme-enabled-by-default
.
The problem you're hitting is that when you're using HierarchicalMNS,
the easyconfig file for each of the dependencies must be available.
EasyBuild relies on same stuff (like 'moduleclass') which is only
available in the easyconfig file to determine the module name in a
module hierarchy (which is step 0 in determining whether a module is
already avaiable for that dependency).
Check whether "eb --search pixman-0.38.0" yields any results for the
pixman easyconfig file.
The solution to your problem is most likely to pass the location of the
pixman easyconfig file to either --robot or --robot-paths.
A common way to avoid this issue in general is to add the location of
the easyconfigs archive (see 'repositorypath' in the output of "eb
--show-config") to --robot-paths in your EasyBuild configuration; see
also
https://easybuild.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Using_the_EasyBuild_command_line.html#controlling-the-robot-search-path.
