p.s. As per the link, another option would be to use "make build_all" instead of "make" to skip the problematic tests. But I'm not sure where that chan ge would be made either.

My problem is that when building with that easyconfig, it hangs (with 99% CPU) when running this test: python -m test.regrtest –-pgo Strace shows this infinitely: sendfile(37, 34, [320625896], 238360) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) Googling implies that this is a coding issue, not something wrong with my system here (I think). So I am looking for a workaround. I saw this; https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__stackoverflow.com_questions_44708262_make-2Dinstall-2Dfrom-2Dsource-2Dpython-2Dwithout-2Drunning-2Dtests&d=DwIGaQ&c=mkpgQs82XaCKIwNV8b32dmVOmERqJe4bBOtF0CetP9Y&r=gDELKgclq4cQfVJi0jTOUg&m=3_qZsHQvWCxXVxFca9H1tbFc6n6U_w-9egOUiNNQTL4&s=QyGl4wk9DPXN1UPFx2-SrQFTbBYnsXyhp-clOw4iEfA&e= Do I do NOT want “--enable-optimizations” on the configure. I see in the log file for the build it is there: == 2020-08-05 13:19:10,821 run.py:222 INFO running cmd: ./configure --prefix=/grid/it/data/elzar/easybuild_sandbox/software/Python/3.7.4-GCCcore-8.3.0 --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --enable-shared --with-lto --enable-optimizations But there is no “configopts” in Python-3.7.4-GCCcore-8.3.0.eb. I tried over-riding the default config by adding a “configopts” line, but that just added things to the default configure options. The enable-optimizations was still there. How can I remove “enable-optimizations” from the configure for Python-3.7.4-GCCcore-8.3.0.eb? It isn’t a default for building Python (for good reason?). Thanks, Todd
